The sheet edges partially unevenly cut as well as, at the upper left, the tiny part of the edge slightly folded forwards (0,8 x 0,1 cm), the edges otherwise without tears or losses. The lower corners with slight creases (to 9 cm). The paper somewhat undulated and, in the margins, with uneven minor time staining. In the lower third of the sheet, at two small places, the paper almost cracked (2,5 and 3,5 cm), there, also slights thinnings in the paper. At the centre of the lower margin, the top paper layer slightly torn and protruding (approx. 1 x 1,3 cm). There is a brownish stain on the left shoe of the seated gentleman and another on the carriage wheel in the background. Ultraviolet light reveals no retouchings or repairs. On the reverse, at the upper edge on the left, a rest of brown tape, slightly pressing to the front, and the paper recto slightly turned whitisch.
