Condition

Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the background tends more towards a rich pillarbox red and the overall tonality is brighter and more virbrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is a very faint rub mark towards the top right hand corner and a further coloured rub mark at the extreme lower edge of the bottom right hand quadrant. There is a very faint vertical stain to the right of the coloured rub mark, approximately 10cm long. Both are visible upon very close inspection. No restoration is apparent under ultra-violet light.
