Colour: The colours in the catalogue are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original work. The arms of the figure are less red and more to rich brown. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Each sheet is securely hinged to the backing board in several places at the reverse, and there is a slight undulation to each sheet of paper throughout the composition. There are minute artist's pinholes in the corners of each sheet of paper.
