Condition

The print is generally in good condition and the sheet is full. There is a circa 7 inch horizontal tear extending from the right sheet edge to the left eye of the figure, and a 3 1/2 inch horizontal tear at the lower left sheet edge extending just to the hair of the figure. Both are backed with Japan. The sheet has toned slightly overall due to exposure to light and the verso has areas of discoloration in the upper sheet corners verso from prior hinging, which are slightly visible on the recto.
