Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The Japanese paper is stretched over wood supports and there is a resulting faint stretcher bar impression along the sides. The inconsistencies to the surface texture appear inherent to the artist's choice of medium.
