Condition

Not examined out of its frame. The gold leaf from the frame has rubbed-off onto the paper, leaving a brown streak along the right edge and some parts of the upper edge. The colors are vibrant and there are no signs of smudging aside from the areas that have been done by the artist. There are a couple of areas of rippling—most likely due to the way the paper is mounted to the mat. Overall, it is in good condition.
