Condition Notes
Brown acidification overall. Remnants of pieces of masking tape, 4 pieces on the back edges. On front, 2 remain, hard glue from one remains and the fourth was torn off. There is a 3-inch tear on bottom left edge. Brown lines indicate edges of mat when portrait was framed.
On back, brown border all around. The 15" x 20.5" area that is reverse of portrait is lighter in color since it had been taped/glued. The upper portion of the center piece shows many brown dots including some dark heavy blot-like stains, remnants of liquid? One cluster of these has soaked through to the front of the piece. There are indentations on all four sides from nails/tacks.
