The item is in vintage condition. The frame's backing paper remains intact and sealed, meaning the frame cannot be opened without tearing it. Thanks to this undisturbed seal, the artwork inside has been well-preserved and remains in good condition, showing only natural signs of aging such as slight discoloration and scattered foxing spots on the washi paper. The frame itself exhibits surface wear, scuffs, and minor scratches from previous display.
