The image has a few dust spots, probably caused by the photographic process. The image and the edges of the sheet are severely faded. The edges of the sheet are browned throughout the frame. If desired, the heavily faded print can be replaced by a new inkjet print on Ditone in consultation with the Axel Hütte studio at the buyer's expense (approx. €3.000 + VAT).
