Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is slightly lighter 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, shallow and unobtrusive hairline scratches isolated in places. Further close inspection reveals a spot of burnishing towards one of the tips.
