Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is brighter in the original work and the purple tends more towards blue. The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined. Under very close inspection, very minor wears located at the extremity of each of the four corners are visible. Under Ultra Violet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. This work is in excellent condition.
