Condition

Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the paper tone is lighter and brighter in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The sheet is hinged verso along the top edge to the backing board and it undulates slightly. All collaged elements are stable. Extremely close inspection reveals a very faint crease towards the top left hand corner tip.
