Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the yellows and the reds are slightly brighter and more vibrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached verso to foam board in several places on the reverse. All four edges are deckled. There are artist's pinholes in the top two corners. Extremely close inspection reveals a minute crease to the extreme upper left corner tip.
