Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration, although the veneered wood inlaid and black fabric on the background are mat. Black fabric paterns are deeper in the background. The work is in good condition. Traces of glue are visible along the top / lower right and lower left edge of the work, they seem to be inherent to the artist's working process.
