Colours: The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration, although the overall tonality is warmer and richer throughout with the pale yellow of the collar tending more towards lemon in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is extremely minor wear to a few places along the bottom turnover edge. There is no retouching apparent when examined under ultra-violet.
