Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is slightly richer and warmer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Visible only upon extremely close inspection in raking light, there are a few extremely thin and unobtrusive isolated surface scratches to the plexiglass in places.
