Condition

This print, on double-weight paper with a semi-matte surface, is in generally very good to excellent condition. There is a very slight wave in the paper. When examined in raking light, a small (about the size of a pencil eraser), shiny, transparent area is visible in the upper left quadrant. On the reverse, there are dark red paint droplets.
