Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the printed catalogue illustration however it does not accurately convey the technique of the artist. Pinholes are visible in the corners of the work. The surface presents several fold marks, tears, holes and other irregularities intended by the artist and inherent to the work. All the above is visible in the catalogue illustration. This work is in very good original condition.
