Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is warmer, brighter and more vibrant, with more prominent ochre and chocolate brown tones in the tree and background of the original. The catalogue illustration does not fully convey the three-dimensionality of the drawing pin elements apparent in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
