The sheet is hinged in places along the upper horizontal edge to its underlying support. The left vertical edge is deckled. The sheet undulates slightly. There is some discolouration to the extreme edges, presumably a result of previous mounting. There is minor rubbing to the upper left quadrant, only visible under strong raking light. There is a pinpoint accretion to the lower left quadrant. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally very good condition.
