Condition

Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although there are fewer yellow undertones in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals a small number of pinhead-sized media accretions scattered in a few isolated places. All other surface irregularities are in keeping with the artist's choice of medium.
