Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is laid down on canvas and there are artist's pinholes to the two lower and upper left corners. Very close inspection reveals some extremely thin and unobtrusive cracks to the thicker areas of white paint, and a further short crack to the dark green pigment on the centre of the left half of the composition.
