Condition

Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality, especially in the blue, is more intense and warmer in the original. Condition: Some very minor craqulure in the paint layers throughout. A few very minor surface scratches along the sides, especially to the upper left corner and bottom side. Some very minor surface dirt throughout. Very minor stretcher marks to the upper left corner. A minor dent in the paintlayer and canvas in the upper left section (located 47cm. from the top and 69cm. from the left side). Otherwise this work seems to be in very good condition.
