Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly lighter and more vibrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals some tiny specks of media in isolated places throughout and some very light wear in places to all four edges and corner tips, most notably the top left hand corner tip. Further very close inspection reveals a very faint and unobtrusive scratch towards the bottom left hand corner and some very light rub marks in isolated places along the bottom, which are only visible in very strong light. Unexamined out of its frame. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
