Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the illustration fails to convey the sculptural reflective quality of the work.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are some faint and unobtrusive handling marks and superficial drip-marks to the reflective surfaces. There are very minor and thin hairline scratches and minute spots of glue, inherent to the artist's working method, in places to the outer reflective frame.
