Condition
The board is stable. UV examination reveals two possible spots of retouching to the upper right corner. There are some scattered dents and scuffs with associated pigment loss, most notably towards the centre of the right edge and two tiny pin sized holes to the feet of the man. This work is in overall good condition.
