Condition

This work is in good condition overall. There is very pale time staining evident at the borders of the image. Under raking light, there is a very faint, soft dent in the upper right of the sheet and inconsistency in the sheen of the emulsion in the lower portion of the composition. There are also a few very small, scattered areas above the eyes of the subject where the surface of the print shines more. Framed under Plexiglas.
