Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality of the felt-tip pen is brighter and more vibrant in the original work.
Condition: This work is in good condition. Framed under glass, there are horizontal creases along the left and lower right edges of the poster. There is undulation to the poster throughout and several shallow creases below the centre of the top edge. The tape securing the collage in the lower right has discoloured in places. All other surface irregularities appear to be original to the artist’s working process.
