Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the background is lighter and catalogue illustration doesn't convey the green nuances to the figures visible in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals a tiny and unobtrusive media accretion towards the lower centre of the left edge. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
