Condition Details:
• Artwork: The antique print remains in overall stable condition with minimal toning. It features a faint historical pencil inscription "1702" written at the bottom margin.
• Glass: Protected behind its original glass, which shows light surface dirt/dust and could benefit from a gentle clean.
• Frame: Housed in a vintage, green-painted wooden frame with a custom mount. As visible in the photos, the green paint on the frame is flaking away, lending it an authentic, heavily distressed, rustic antique charm.
