There is rippling along the edges on the reverse, especially the left and lower edges, probably due to adhesive tape. The lower left corner is slightly creased. There are pin holes in the figure’s hat. A few light scratches are scattered across the surface, these are especially noticeable in the lower left and above the figure’s eye. There are minor superficial dirt spots across the composition. Framed and glazed. Overall in very good condition.
