Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original, with the background tending more to true white, the top left geranium "LV" logo more to fuchsia and the grey symbols more to a light lilac hue. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is a fine layer of dust adhering to the surface and some light surface dirt to the outer bottom corners. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
