In an overall good state of preservation. Some reduction to overall colour depth and recently light time staining through the sheet which is mostly apparent to the lesser worked area such as sky, and upper left-hand corner. Possible subtle cockle to sheet however not examined out of the frame. Odd tiny foxing spot e.g. lower left-hand corner.
