Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly warmer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The sheet is loose behind glass with a backingboard at the reverse. The sheet is slightly undulated throughout and there are a few tiny isolated fine creases, both a result of the artist's working process and choice of media.
