Condition

This photograph is in generally excellent condition. The colors remain bright and saturated, with no apparent fading. There is a 3-1/2-inch scratch near the center that may break the emulsion but is only visible upon close examination. Other superficial scratches are visible when the photograph is examined in high raking light and these do not seem to break the emulsion. None of this detracts from the overall fine appearance of this photograph. There is a small crease at the lower right margin edge. 'P. L. 150.3' is written in an unidentified hand in pencil on the reverse of the mount. There are 2 additional gallery labels on the reverse of the frame (one Pace/Wildenstein/MacGill and one Pace Wildenstein) that pertain to a different photograph.
