Condition
Overall the work is in excellent condition. The c-print shows a few faint horizontal scratches towards its base, where the photograph meets the artist's frame (visible only at close range under raking light). There are a few minor surface scratches and nicks to the frame. There is some accretion residue on the upper right of the reverse of the frame.
