Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly brighter and more vibrant in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals a faint handling mark in the upper left hand corner and some very light wear to the lower right hand corner tip. There is an extremely thin and unobtrusive tension crack running along the extreme lower edge. There are a few minute and isolated fly spots in places. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
