Copper is flat and stable. there are some small paint losses at lower left corner and at lower center edge, and a tiny loss in sky at left (as visible in catalogue image). overall, there is excellent preservation of the paint surface with lovely detail throughout. ultraviolet light reveals retouching at upper right and left corners, lower right corner and lower edge at left. these all appear to be retouches over old small losses.
