Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although they are more vibrant in the original.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals a few short and unobtrusive rub marks towards the centre of the lower edge. Further very close inspection reveals two small and unobtrusive paint losses: the first to one of the impasto peaks towards the lower left corner, and the second to an area of white paint towards the lower left corner. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
