Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the red colour is more vivid and the white tends more to off-white in the original work. All due to the artist process, some light cracks are visible under close inspection in the red areas and some lack of paints are visible at the major folding points as visible in the catalogue illustration. This work is in good condition.
