Condition
The board is stable. UV examination reveals no evidence of retouching. There is some frame rubbing to the right part of the extreme upper edge, some general surface dirt and fly spots in places. This work would benefit from a clean. Otherwise this work is in overall very good condition.
Colours: Overall fairly accurate, although the water is less blue in the original when compared to the printed catalogue illustration.
