The sheet is attached with tabs at all four corners, but is not laid down. The sheet is very slightly unevenly cut along the top and bottom horizontal edges and slightly cockled in places, most noticeable around the edges. There are very light creases in the upper right and lower right corners. There is a light area of staining to the upper section of the right vertical edge, with a further possible small spot of staining in the upper left corner. There are a few small specks of studio detritus in places. Subject to the above the work is in very good overall condition, with strong fresh passages of medium. The work is floating within a window mount and held within a simple black painted wood frame under glass.
