I know very little about ink, but I'm a little surprised, especially for something marked as archival.

My only point of comparison is an etching which is a few hundred years old. The ink has no obvious signs of fading. It had some light restoration about forty years ago but we usually have it on display, at least in my life time.

When I've seen other prints of the same etching in galleries, they are usually in the same or slightly worse condition despite, probably, being kept much more carefully.
