Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original. The catalogue illustration also fails to fully convey the glossy nature of the surface visible in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There are folding creases throughout, all of which are original to the artist's choice of medium. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
