Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is whiter in the original.
Condition: This work is very good condition. There are several characteristic and stable drying cracks scattered through out, which are inherent to the artist's choice of media and visible in the catalogue illustration. No restoration is apparent under ultraviolet light.
