This early, unspotted print is on medium-weight paper with a surface sheen. As is sometimes typical of Francesca Woodman lifetime prints, it has been printed slightly asymmetrically on the sheet. In the lower left and right margin corners, there are creases that do not intrude upon the print or affect it in any way. There are small, faint deposits of indeterminate nature in the lower and left margins. When examined in raking light, the following are visible: tiny, soft indentations in the upper corner; and a small crescent-shaped soft crease in the lower right corner. On the reverse of the print, there is light age-darkening and light red deposits of indeterminate nature at the lower edge.
