Under very close inspection, there are scattered and unobtrusive surface scratches throughout. There is a minor surface abrasion ½ inch from the top edge approximately 22 inches from the left edge.

Under Ultraviolet light inspection, the aforementioned drip accretion fluoresces but is not the result of restoration. Unframed.
