Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although there are no magenta undertones in the original and the overall tonality is slightly deeper. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals some drying cracks to the mud, which are in keeping with the artist's working process and choice of media. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
