The engraved part of the image does not sit evenly upon the paper on which it is printed. This would not present a problem were the image to be framed. There a strong vertical crease running vertically through the piece and one fainter line. These are in consequence of the image having been folded into a book. There are a couple of small spots of foxing across the surface of the image. It is otherwise fresh and very clean.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"De Giorgio Decorative","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52593951605072,"sku":"26","price":165.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/0303\/6752\/files\/il_fullxfull.7686899259_rler.jpg?v=1780511996","url":"https:\/\/degiorgio-decorative.com\/products\/a-copper-plate-engraving-of-a-bittern-and-93476","provider":"De Giorgio Decorative","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
