There are two tiny specks of paint loss; one to the top edge, 20cm. in from the upper left corner, and the other to the centre left of the bottom edge. There are two faint diagonal rub marks running parallel from the lower left corner and a further horizontal rub mark 25cm. above the lower left corner with a few associated specks of paint loss. No restoration is apparent under ultra-violet light.
