Condition Report:
Please note the colors and shades in the online catalogue illustration may vary depending on screen settings.

This early print is in generally very good condition. It is trimmed to the image and flush-mounted to another sheet of processed photographic paper as was the artist's practice. The tips of the corners are clipped diagonally and the edges are accentuated in ink. The photograph is somewhat rippled and lifting slightly from the mount. There are scattered rust-colored deposits of indeterminate nature on the mount and the reverse. There are inactive adhesive remnants on the reverse of the mount.

This print has recently undergone conservation. Please contact the Photographs Department for a treatment report.

Provenance:
Acquired from the photographer in the 1970s

By descent to the present owner
