It has a good strong pencil signature in the lower right corner with reasonably strong colour throughout, however, there are one or two minor time stains, one of these is running from top to bottom, through the number of the print in the bottom left, this extends for approximately 4-5 inches, with further time stains in the top left, three running approx 3-4 inches in length from top to bottom; a further mark nearby, which again extends for 1-1.5 inches. The glass may have broken previously. There is a scuff mark or scratch in the centre of the print approx 3 inches from the edge with further minor scratches caused by slivers of glass near the larger scratch. It is contained within a silver aluminium frame placed on the work in Palma de Mallorca back in the 1980/90's (141111)
