Condition
This early print, on slightly warm-toned double-weight paper with a surface sheen, is in generally excellent condition. The edges are slightly rubbed, and there is a small area of emulsion loss in the margin at the upper right edge. Along the left margin, there are areas of stray exposure. As is typical of many works by the photographer, the image has been asymmetrically printed on the paper, with uneven margins at the left, right, and lower edges and no margin at the top edge.
'E.07.03' is written in pencil on the reverse in the upper right corner.
