Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There is evidence of minor bumping to the left corner tips of 'Mike Pickering', and of light and even discolouration to some of the prints, which is in keeping with the artist's chosen medium's natural ageing process.
