Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is deeper and richer in the original with the orange areas in the bottom left corner and centre top tending more towards a florescent orange. The illustration also fails to convey the reflective surface of the collage elements and the rich surface textures that distinguish the present work. The area of yellow in the bottom left of the composition is gold foil in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is light wear to the upper left and lower left corner tips and a very minor rub mark in the bottom left corner tip. There is a light layer of dust adhering to the surface throughout. No restoration is apparent under ultra-violet light.
