Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although they fail to fully convey the green colour of the left half of the frame. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals some light and unobtrusive signs of wear to the frame. Visible only upon extremely close inspection in raking light, are a small number of thin and unobtrusive scratches to the surface of the print.
