  • Condition: There is no obvious indentations or perforations to the paper. Minimal / light discolouration to the paper consistent with age. The image appears to have retained most of its colouration. The print has not been viewed outside of the frame however there is an obvious wave in the paper which tends to indicate the paper is not laid down. This print is in very good, original condition.
