Condition
Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly warmer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals some very fine tension cracks to the lower edge and a minute and unobtrusive rub mark on the bottom edge towards the right hand corner. Further extremely close inspection reveals a tiny cluster of hairline cracks toward the top of the figures shoulder, which fluorescents when examined under ultra violet light.
