The sheet is deckled along the extreme edges, but otherwise lies flat. The sheet is mounted to the mat support through the use of clear corner mounts at each corner. The artist's original pinholes are visible at the upper left and right corners. The sheet is toned throughout. There is staining visible along the extreme edges. The medium has been well preserved and the pigments have maintained their vibrancy.
