Condition

This work is in very good and sound condition overall. All elements are present and stable. There are minor areas of pigment loss, primarily along some of the edges and scattered, faint accretions throughout, which are visible upon close inspection and do not disrupt the work. There are three linear abrasions with what appear to be a small surrounding area of minor restoration, which does not fluoresce under Ultraviolet light and which is only visible upon close inspection under raking light.
