Condition
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is warmer in the original.
This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals a minute hairline vertical scratch extending intermittently in the upper left quadrant of the right-hand photograph, and two towards the centre of the middle photograph.
