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 a small spot of media accretion to the outer left edge near the top corner. Very close inspection reveals a short and very fine rub mark towards the lower centre of the canvas, and a further minute rub to the lower-rightmost nail. No restoration is apparent under ultraviolet light.
