Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are artist's pinholes in isolated places to the edges of the sheets. All collaged elements are stable and the sheets undulate slightly, with some associated light creasing. Very close inspection reveals a small spot of lifting towards the upper right corner and a media accretion towards the centre left of the lower edge.
