A vertical stretcher bar mark faintly visible at center under raking light. Very faint, finely patterned craquelure throughout. A very few small areas of minor surface abrasion. A few scattered small dots of what appears to be errant white paint, and some pinpoint dots of loss which appear to be stabilized beneath the varnish layer. Minor surface dust.
