In overall very good condition. The sheet is affixed to the undermat via two pieces of white linen tape at upper left and upper right corner, which allows us to inspect its verso. With light mat staining around the image (leaving a band of about 0 ¼ in.). The edges of the sheet are regular, without any sign of tear or loss, except at bottom left: to the right of the corner, we notice a small indentation along the bottom outer edge. The sheet is very soft and light. With some texture to it at times. With minor creases (from handling and hinging) at upper right corner, and nearby scratching in the margin( covered by the mat). We notice a horizontal light crease running across the center line of the sheet (it is also visible verso). The sheet is lightly toned. Minor evidence of surface soiling in the background. With light, multiple yellowed speck on the reverse, which do not show through. See Specialist's pictures for more details.
