Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the background is slightly deeper in the original and the illustration fails to convey the sparkling nature of the diamond dust visible in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There is light wear with associated minor tension cracks and light handling along the outer edges. There is some light and even discolouration to the edges. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
