Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the catalogue illustration fails to fully convey the shine of the metallic surface of the tin element apparent in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are scattered hairline scratches, rub marks and some light tarnishing in places throughout, in keeping with the artist's intention.
