Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate. Condition: This work is in very condition. There are a few very fine and unobtrusive hairline scratches in a few isolated places throughout, visible only upon close examination. Some minute dust fibres are trapped between the print and the plexiglas, the majority to the lower section of the composition. The print has slightly aged in the manner of other cibrachrome prints from the same period.
