Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the paper tone is slightly warmer in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached to the backing board in several places in the reverse. There is some extremely light creasing to all four corners and in a few further places along the top extreme edge. There is a tiny pale media accretion to the left of centre on the top edge, and a horizontal line of red pigment below this which is likely to be original to the printing process (visible in the catalogue illustration).
