Condition

Colour: The colours in the colours are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly brighter and more vibrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is evidence of light wear to all four corner tips and towards the horizontal edges. Extremely close inspection reveals a tiny speck of paint loss towards the centre of the right hand side of the composition. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
