Condition

The print is in good condition and the margins are wide. Over time and due to exposure to light, the paper has toned slightly and the colors have very slightly faded, although they are still strong for this print. There is a small puncture in the yellow at left. The sheet edges have darkened over time, particularly in the lower corners, and there is a shallow loss at the upper right sheet corner. The lower right sheet corner is creased.
