Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is deeper and richer in the original. The catalogue illustration fails to fully convey the textured collaged fabric apparent in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There is a very small indentation in the top left corner.
