The sheet is attached to the mount at the four edges.
There are four artist's pinholes at each of the four corners.
A minor 8 mm tear in the middle of the upper edge is absolutely not visible under the frame.
A slight discoulouration is visible along the edges, probably due to the mounting.
This work is in very good condition.
