Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly warmer in the actual work. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is a slight undulation to the print notably along the bottom edge. At the centre of the top edge, there is a small semi-circular area of imperfection to the print, as well as several further unobtrusive imperfections in the upper left quadrant.
