Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the white tends more towards cream in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There are scattered abrasions and spots of paint loss throughout, which appear to be inherent to the artist's working method. There are spots of oxidation in the crevices of the compressed car parts.
