Condition
The print is in good condition. Pale light-stain is visible in the image, very slightly attenuating the colors - this is darkest at the mat opening. There is discoloration from the mat in the outer margins and on the verso, which upon close inspection appears also as very pale mottled foxing. Remains of adhesive run the entire length of the upper sheet edge verso and in two places at the lower sheet edge, the remains of prior hinging.
