Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is cooler in the original. Condition: The work is in very good condition. The surface irregularities and uneven patina to the sculpture are integral to the artist's working process. Unexamined out of its frame, the work on paper is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals some signs of discolouration to the paper, which are a natural part of the paper's ageing process.
