Condition: Throssel's painterly silver print, which is on textured paper, with thin white margins around the image area, is in excellent condition. The print displays delicate tones throughout. There are several tiny white spots in the lower left and bottom portion of the picture that reflect clear (uncoated) areas on the original negative. There's faint silvering along the right edge.
The print is affixed to a period mount with Throssel's penciled signature and date as well as his debossed hand stamp; it's hosued in a period wodden frame. Throssel's inventory number and amphora-shaped logo appears in in the negative, at the lower right.
