Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate though the overall tonality is much softer with the red tending more towards peach in the original.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. The edges are slightly uneven and show signs of very light intermittent wear inherent to the artist's choice of medium. There are tiny artist's pinholes to all four corners and several spots of very faint wear to the top left hand corner. There are several very faint flattened creases to the top edge which would appear to be inherent to the artist's working process.
