Condition
This print is in very good general condition. With a few light handling marks mainly in the uper portion of the print and at the centre of the lower edge. With remnants of an earlier mount (dark green card) in the four corners on the reverse, and the spots of adhesive which fixes the print to these remnants is now slightly visible as a "relief" on the recto, not dicoulouring the print. The right edge is irregularly cut.
