Condition

This chromogenic print is in generally very good to excellent condition. The colors remain vibrant and saturated with no apparent fading. Upon very close inspection, hairline scratches, faint soiling and dust on the Diasec surface are visible overall. In the lower portion of the Diasec face, near the edge, are several longer scratches/scuffs. These minor issues do not detract from the overall fine appearance of the print.
