Condition

Condition: This work is in very good condition. Some surface irregularities to the collage, in line with the artist's creative process. Upon closer inspection, some very faint paper creases are present in the sections of collage, again in line with the artist's creative process. No signs of restoration under UV light. Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, with the skyline tending towards a lighter blue instead of the purple present in the catalogue illustration. The overall hues are less purple and pink, and more blue and green in the original work.
