Condition

This mural-sized chromogenic print is in generally excellent condition. The colors remain vibrant and saturated, with no apparent fading. As is frequently seen in other comparable works that are front-mounted to acrylic, the following are visible on the acrylic surface when examining the work very closely in high raking light: superficial hairline scratches; and some fingerprints, mostly at the extreme edges. There is a 5-1/2-inch scratch near the center right edge of the image, which is only visible upon close examination. These do not detract in any way from the overall impressive appearance of this mural-sized photograph.
