Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is richer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals a crack to the encaustic towards the center of the lower left quadrant of the right facing panel, which has been restored by the artist. All other irregularities appear to be inherent to the artists choice of medium and working process.
