Condition
Colours:
The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration, although the purple of the figure's arms, head and legs tends more towards royal blue and the pink of the dress more to deep rose pink in the original.
Condition:
The work is in very good condition. Upon close examination there is a very small rub mark to the back of the figure's head. There are a few tiny and unobtrusive surface irregularities and some rub marks to the inside of the rim of the vase, notably to the left side.
