Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although each panel is uniformly painted in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection revels some evidence of light and unobtrusive wear to some of the corner tips of each panel. Further close inspection reveals two minute spots of media accretion to the lower half of the third and fourth panels. There are some light stretcher bar marks to the horizontal edges of each panel. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
