Condition
Colours:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is deeper and richer in the original. The catalogue illustration fails to fully convey the metallic quality of the background and of the copper tonality of the embroidery apparent in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
