Condition

Dust has been removed from the work after the illustration shot for the catalogue so the colours appear more contrasted in the original work. The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined. Under UV light inspection, small points of retouching are visible in the grey areas on the left and right edges. This work is in very good condition.
