Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly warmer in the original. The catalogue illustration fails to fully convey the three dimensionality of the elements apparent in the original.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are a very small number of minute specks of loss to the extreme corner tips and the extreme edges of four of the elements, visible only upon very close inspection. There is very light, superficial surface dirt to the white areas of the smaller pink and larger brown elements on the top row.
