David Hockney

The design is executed on three sheets which are each laid down on a larger sheet of card; the shape of each sheet is visible in the catalogue illustration and the paper has slightly discoloured, notably to the edges of each sheet and across the centre of the composition. There is a small vertical crease running to the left of the wine bottle in the upper right quadrant, some very minor handling marks and scattered spots of staining otherwise in good original condition. Held in a simple metallic frame under glass; unexamined out of frame. The colours are similar to the catalogue illustration however, the paper tones are slightly warmer than the illustration suggests.
