Condition

Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the wooden wall is lighter in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals some faint, hairline cracks to the top, left and right hand edges and a small spot of loss on the bottom edge, approximately 24cm from the bottom right hand corner. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
