Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly brighter in the original.
Condition: Unexamined out of the frame, this work is in very good condition. There is a faint and intermittent stretcher bar mark running along the horizontal axis. Upon close inspection, there are a few faint media accretions towards the centre of the upper right and upper left quadrants. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
