Work is in good overall condition and has not been examined out of frame, however, sheet is fully visible. Small tears to upper right corner and lower edge below falcon's tail and two small losses to center of lower edge and lower right corner. One diagonal crease to center of right edge and minor flaking to black pigment within eye. Few areas of surface soiling throughout, most noticeably to corners and one pinpoint sized bulge to sheet within uppermost wing, due to pressure from a foreign object. Overall, work presents well. Framed behind glass measuring 20 x 25 inches.
