Condition
The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration, although the overall contrast is more important in the original. Black and blue have more density and transparencies are deeper.
The work is in excellent codition. The work is executed on a light beige wove paper. At each of the two upper corners, artist's pinholes are visible upon very close inspection. A tiny surface scratch is visible upon very close inspection along the lower right edge of the sheet.
