Condition
Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is deeper and richer in the original, and it fails to fully convey the metallic qualities of the gold paint. Condition: This work is in very good and original condition. All surface irregularities are in keeping with the artist's working process and choice of materials. Extremely close inspection reveals a few minute nicks and chips to the extreme edges and some tiny spots of flaking and burnishing to the relief element.
