Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly warmer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals some light wear on the extreme right edge towards the top rigt corner, and a tiny spot of irregularity to the pigment at the centre of the lower edge. Examination under ultra-violet light reveals that a small number of the protruding elements fluoresce.
