This work is in very good condition overall. There is evidence of light wear and handling along the edges, most notably a 1.5-inch loss to the pigment along the bottom edge just left of center and at the lower right corner. Under raking light, some scattered minor and unobtrusive hairline scratches are visible on the surface, inherent to the artist's chosen medium. Unframed.
