Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is more vibrant and there are more yellow and green highlights in the original. The illustration also fails to convey the luminous quality and depth of the photograph.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There are a number of superficial dust fibres beneath the plexiglass frame. Upon very close inspection there is a very faint horizontal line that runs across the sheet at the level of the figure's eyes, likely to be inherent to the printing process.
