Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is richer and deeper in the original. The catalogue illustration fails to convey the glossy surface texture apparent in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The rod with the yellow round handle (not visible in the catalogue illustration) has been professionally reattached and strengthened with a stainless steel dowel.
