Acquired directly from the artist circa 1979

Condition

Colour: The colours are fairly accurate although the tonality is warmer in the original work. The catalogue illustration also fails to convey the metalic artist's frame. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are several small dents to the frame's top edge and two dents to the right edge. There is a small white rub mark circa 15 cm below the upper right corner. The varnish has yellowed with age.
