Condition
Colours: The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original with the lime green outer border tending more towards bright yellow.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. As is visible in the catalogue illustration, there are four small yellow media spots adhering to the right section of the centre square. These appear to be original to the work's execution.
