Condition Report: Harmonious overall appearance. At the left edge in the centre one closed tear (2,5 cm) backed with adhesive tape; thus the paper here slightly faded. The lower left corner with a small loss (0,4 x 1,2 cm) and the upper right corner with a loss (2 x 1,5 cm) and accompanying partially torn mounting hole. The paper unevenly slightly time stained, mainly in the mat window. In the margins outside the motif in places scuff marks and finger stains. In the upper right corner one small light-brown liquid stain. The corners with up to 2 minuscule mounting holes and faint pin marks. Ultraviolet light reveals no retouchings or repairs. On the reverse in places slight scuffing. In the upper right corner fibre remnants of brown paper tape
