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 convey the textured surface of the work.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There is a layer of dust adhering to the surface. All surface irregularities are inherent of the artist's working process. No restoration is apparent when examined with ultraviolet light.
