Condition

Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustrations are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly brighter in the orignal work. Condition: These works are in good condition. Each is protected beneath an original layer of varnish which has scattered tiny specs of dust embedded within it. In places the varnish layer is slightly uneven resulting in minor discolouration. There is very light wear to some of the extreme corner tips and handling marks in places around the outer white edges of each work. There are scattered light rub marks to the upper sections of each work, most notably to (II) Fast Food, Hamburger. There is no retouching apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
