Colours:
The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration, althought the horizontal strip pf pink-purple paint in the centre tends more towards a deep purple in the original.
Condition:
The work is in very good condition. There are a number of extremely light and unobtrusive rub marks visible upon close inspection: to each corner, to the right side of the bottom edge, two to the centre of the right edge and one towards the top of the right extreme edge. There is a light line of wear to the top edge - right of centre - and a further vertical line of wear to the lower part of the left extreme edge. There are no apparent retouchings under ultraviolet light.
