Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original, with more eggshell yellow undertones throughout. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Upon close inspection, there is extremely fine shrinkage to the blue pigment at the centre of the right edge and in the orange pigment towards the lower left hand corner. There is a light rub mark on the lower edge towards the right hand corner and some very light handling marks in the top two corners. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
