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

This print is in generally excellent condition. The colors are rich and saturated with no signs of fading. Visible under raking light are a few handling creases in the upper portion of the image and a pinpoint-sized impression near the tip of the tusk area, none of which appear to break the emulsion.
