This print, on double-weight paper with a surface sheen, is in generally excellent condition. Under close examination in raking light, there are two very soft crescent-shaped creases visible in the upper right quadrant of the image. The upper and lower margin edges are gently rippled. The reverse of the print is hinged to a backboard in the upper corners. 'RMG#A9011.287-0' is written in pencil in an unidentified hand on the reverse.
