Condition
The glass is intact. There is a tiny fleck of paint loss towards the lower edge of the left border. There are light variations along the extreme four edges, possibly due to previous framing. There are no signs of retouching visible under UV light on the recto of the work. Otherwise, the work appears to be in good condition.
Colours: Fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, although the hues are more intense in the original.
