Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the light blue and the pink are brighter and more vibrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached verso to the backing mount and undulates slightly. Close inspection reveals evidence of faint handling marks and light creasing along the edges and corner tips, which is likely to be original.
