Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is warmer in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is laid down on board. There is some light discolouration to the unpainted areas of paper along the edges of the sheet and to some of the white paint at the centre of the composition. Upon close inspection, there are fine, hairline drying cracks with some associated tiny losses to the thicker areas of paint throughout.
