Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is darker in the original, has less contrast and a blue undertone which is not apparent in the catalogue illustration. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals a few unobtrusive rub marks towards the lower edge, and some small media accretions scattered throughout. Further close inspection reveals a small scratch to the left edge, approximately 30 cm. from the upper left corner. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
