Condition
Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original work where the left background of the composition tends more towards purple and the right tends more towards blue/green.
Condition: This work is in very good condition and is securely hinged to the backing board in all four corners. There is very light undulation to the left and right extreme edges and also where the two sheets overlap. There is a tiny crease to the lower right corner of the purple sheet and the lower left corner is lifting very slightly. There are several tiny irregularities to the purple and turquoise backgrounds in the upper left and upper right corners which are original to the work's execution.
