Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original. The catalogue illustration fails to convey the rich surface texture of the collaged elements apparent in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is a short rub mark towards the lower left corner on the bottom edge and two pin head-sized fly spots beneath the centre on the left extreme edge. There is some minor surface dirt on the left side of the top edge and in a few places elsewhere, inherent to the artist's choice of medium and working process.
