Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is more uniform throughout and tends towards the lighter creamy tone visible towards the centre of the image.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached to the backing card at the top two corners on the reverse. On very close inspection, there are specks of irregularities to the card. All other irregularities are original and in keeping with the artist's choice of medium and working process.
