There are some minor horizontal cracks in line with the grain of the bark. There are minor nicks and nips to the wooden body, visible upon close inspection, and a small possible fleck of loss to the bottom right hand corner of the central bark panel, and a further possible fleck of loss to the left hand edge of the bottom panel, visible upon close inspection. There is minor surface dirt and traces of surface matter throughout. This excepting, the work appears in good overall condition.
