Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the background colour is slightly darker in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals some light wear in places along the edges. There are some thin hairline cracks to the right-hand diamond in the third row down. Inspection under ultra violet light reveals a few very small specks of fluorescence to the extreme outer edges which appear to be in inpainting.
