Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The print is cornered to the mat and window-matted. Only visible under raking light and when unframed, there is evidence of a few very minor unobtrusive faint surface scratches. Only visible when the print is unframed and below the mat, there is some very minor wear to the top left and lower right extreme corners. Framed under glass.
