Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue's illustration. The work is executed on plywood and composed of four panels. A few very minor paint losses located near the edges, on the rims of the panels, are non visible when standing in front of the work. Some scattered superficial rub marks are visible under close-up inspection. Under UV light examination, there is no evidence of any retouching. This work is in very good condition.
