Supporto e superficie pittorica in buone condizioni, l'opera non è rintelata. La tela è leggermente ondulata in corrispondenza dell'angolo inferiore destro e presenta delle pieghe lungo i margini verticali e inferiore. Leggere tracce di sporco superficiale lungo il margine superiore. Craquelure in corrispondenza dei passaggi a smalto e nel quadrante inferiore sinistro; una piccola caduta di colore sulla stella in alto al centro della composizione. Quattro fori alle estremità della composizione serigrafica. Esaminata alla luce ultravioletta, non presenta tracce evidenti di restauri. Tenuto conto di quanto sopra, è nostra opinione che l'opera sia in condizioni di conservazione buone.
