Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration, although the overall tonality is lighter in the original. Are only visible under very close inspection : - a light crease (approx. 5cm) located in the lower right corner - a superficial round crease at the extremity of the left corner - a minor tear (approx. 1cm) located along the upper edge - a light and superficial crease through the left quadrant - a slight waviness throughout due to the artist's process. This work is in very good condition.
