Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. Upon close inspection, there are a few faint and unobtrusive spots of surface dirt scattered across the composition. There are a few extremely small specks of paint loss towards the upper right quadrant of the composition. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
