Examined in the frame and under glass. As visible in the catalogue illustration, there are scattered creases in the sheet and small tears along the upper part of the left edge, as well as a loss in the sheet along a wavy line in the upper left quadrant which has been partly retouched. Some spots of light foxing are also visible. The paper tone is less yellow-orange overall than in the catalogue illustration.
