Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly warmer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals a very short and unobtrusive hairline crack in the thicker area of impasto towards the upper left corner. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
