Condition

Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the illustration fails to convey the shinyness glossy elements in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are several hairline scratches in places throughout the composition, only visible upon close inspection. There are several faint rub marks throughout, most notably in the lower right quadrant. There is a further rub mark with white paint residue towards the lower right corner tip. There is a tiny media accretion towards the centre of the left edge.
