Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although there are fewer yellow undertones in the original. Condition: Unexamined out of its frame, this work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached verso in several places. There are artist's pinholes in all four corners. Close inspection reveals a number of short nicks and surface irregularities in places along the edges, which are in keeping with the artist's working process.
