Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There are artist's pinholes in all four corners. Close inspection reveals a few tiny and unobtrusive media accretions isolated towards the lower half of the composition, all of which are likely to be original, and some very light wear to he lower two corner tips. There is evidence of light discolouration in places, notably to the adhesive tape.
