Condition
Colours: The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration, although the illustration fails to accurately convey the metallic sheen of the paper. The work is curved in the original, original to the work's execution.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are extremely light surface scratches, tiny shallow creases and small air bubbles in places throughout, predominantly to the lower section of the composition. There is a slightly deeper crease towards the bottom right hand corner below the date. There are four extremely minor spots of light discolouration to the lower left hand quadrant.
