Condition Report

There is significant discolouration to the paper. It looks to be that the paper was previously mounted due to the inconsistancy to the discolouration. As expected, there is a large square area which is darker/discoloured due to this. There is also a large horizontal crease in the top section which stretches end to end widith wise. The colour pigment has darkened due to the paper discolouration, but there are some areas which has retained fairly well, mainly the red pigment. There are no visible signs of tears or rips, but visible vertical crease found at the upper section close to the sheet border. A professional clean would be recommended.
