Overall good condition. A few small areas of retouching to the hat and coat of the right most figure visible upon UV inspection. Slight silver mirroring to the figure's cloaks visible in raking light. A minor accretion located near the 3rd left most figure also visible under closer UV inspection. An approximate 4 inch hard crease in bottom left corner extends from the margin into the image. Other scattered creases and undulations are localized to the margins, not visible through window mat. Tape remnants on the sheet's lower margin recto, also not visible through window mat. Sheet curls slightly upward at the top and bottom edges. Most condition issues listed in this report are not visible through window mat and frame. Cornered to a window mat and framed under glass measuring 16-1/2 x 18-1/2 inches.
