Condition

These toned gelatin silver prints, on double-weight paper with an eggshell textured surface, are in generally excellent condition. There are some tiny scattered deposits of indeterminate nature, possibly original retouching, on each print. In the margins, there are linear graphite marks. The margin corners and edges are bumped, with occasional minor chipping. This diptych is from an unnumbered edition.
