Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original. The illustration fails to fully convey the three-dimensionality of the metal studs, apparent in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. All the elements are stable and secure. All surface irregularities are inherent to the artist's choice of medium.
