Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the background tends more towards soft cream and there is sharper contrast in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached verso to the backing mount in several places. There are some handling creases along the edges, notably where the work is hinged, as well as some very faint discolouration due to the adhesive. All other surface irregularities are in keeping with the artist's choice of media and working process.
