Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is richer and deeper in the original work where the yellows are warmer and there are more pronounced raspberry hues to the centre of the composition. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are tiny pinholes to all four corners of the sheet, inherent to the artist's working process. There are three very faint finger marks to the lower left quadrant which are only visible upon very close inspection and would appear to be original to the work's execution.
