Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is slightly brighter in the original.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals a few thin hairline drying cracks in places to the junctions of the protruding square elements, inherent to the nature of the media. Examination under ultra-violet light reveals some areas of restoration in places to the squares towards the left edge.
