Condition
Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original and it fails to fully convey the neon qualities of the paint. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals a very light and unobtrusive handling mark towards each bottom extreme corner tip. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
