Condition

This crisp, highly detailed photograph, with a semi-glossy surface and on a thin mount, is in generally very good condition. The perimeter has yellowed very slightly with age. There is silvering at the perimeter of the image. The mount is somewhat age-darkened and there is scattered faint foxing. There is a slight wave to the mount and some minor corner wear. There is soiling on the reverse of the mount.
