There are significant areas of creasing and abrasion with associated pigment loss throughout. Some areas of abrasion reveal the weave of the cotton canvas. There are losses to the primary canvas support within the upper right quadrant and to the left of the mandala. There is a water stain atop the lineage holder in the upper right corner of the composition. There is a loss to some detail in the painting scattered throughout as well as an overall discoloration. The painting remains sewn to its textile mount.
