Condition
The colours in the printed catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although they are slightly lighter than in the original work. The paper is laid down on paper which is attached verso to the backing board in the corners. The background presents several stains, which are inherent to the artist's collage technique. The figure's face has slightly yellowed. This work is in very good condition.
