Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. Upon very close inspection, there a few minute losses to the pigment on the left extreme edge, a further tiny loss towards the centre of the extreme lower edge and a nick that is apparent only to the touch towards the top right corner on the top extreme edge. There is an unobtrusive, flush and fine tear to the paper towards the centre in the top half of the composition. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
