Condition Report: Harmonious overall appearance. The sheet corners and edges, in particular the lower edge, bumped and with accompanying creases; the paper smoothed at a later stage. At the lower sheet edge on the right, a brownish discolouration (1 x 11 cm). Outside the motif, isolated minuscule light brown pinpoint foxing. The paper, overall, somewhat lightly soiled and with isolated scuff marks. On the reverse, in the upper corners, white and brown paper tape remnants of an old mount, slightly pressing through to the front
