Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the colours are creamer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals fine horizontal tension cracks at the extreme upper edge and a network of very fine and unobtrusive drying cracks at the right edge of the white paint. Very close inspection reveals handling marks in isolated places along the edges of the composition and occasional minute media accretions and unobtrusive stains in isolated places. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.

Any reference to condition in the condition report for the lot does not amount to a full description of condition.
