Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the paper tends more towards ivory in the orginal. The illustration also fails to convey the collaged elements of the work. Condition: This work is in very good original condition. It is hinged to the backing board at intervals around the edges on the reverse. There is undulation to the sheet throughout. There are shallow creases scattered throughout and a vertical crease to the upper centre of the top edge, all original to the work's execution. There are spots of glue residue surrounding the collaged elements and a further splash of glue to the centre right of the the bottom edge.
