Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the tonality of the print is deeper and richer in the original. The catalogue illustration fails to fully convey the reflective nature of the mirrored eyes visible in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There is evidence of light wear to the extreme lower left corner of the frame.
