Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is warmer in the original, with some of the collaged elements tending more towards ochre in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. It is hinged to the backing board in a few places on the reverse along the top edge. There is a minute crease to the bottom right hand corner tip. There is slight lifting to some of the paper collage elements. There are a few very light handling creases, notably to the lower right hand corner tip, to the lower part of the right margin, and to the centre of the top edge. There is slight undulation along the bottom edge of the sheet.
