Condition
The work is in very good condition overall. Upon close observation, there is evidence of very minor wear on upper left corner; 2 tiny spots of accretion on the lower right and a tiny mark of white accretion and gentle water stain maek on the bottom edge (near center). Upon close inspection, rub / abrasion marks and mild surface scratches are throughout on the varnish layer to the lower half of the work. Examination under ultraviolet light shows no sign of restoration.
