Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the background is slightly deeper in the original, and fails to convey the iridescent quality of the gold paint in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals some very light wear to the extreme outer edges of the frame.
