Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There are some superficial hairline scratches to the plexiglass most notably to the upper right square, only visible under raking light. There is some light glue residue stuck between the plexiglass and the frame to the centre of the composition, and some faint wear to the lower right corner of the plexiglass.
