Condition

This print, trimmed to the image and on paper with a surface sheen, is in generally excellent condition. In the lower left quadrant of the image, there is a small matte deposit of indeterminate nature. Visible in high raking light are a few faint small linear indentations in the upper right quadrant of the image. There is minor edge wear and chipping. The print is slightly more warm-toned along the right edge. When examined in ultraviolet light, this print does not appear to fluoresce.
