Condition
The colours are fairly accurate in the printed catalogue illustration although the overall tonality in the pink areas is slightly brighter. The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined. Under visible inspection, handling marks are located on the left and right edges. There is a small dent along the upper edge close to the right corner that resulted in a tiny loss. Under Ultra Violet light inspection there is no evidence of restoration. This work is in very good condition.
