Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the greens are brighter and the reds are less orange. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is evidence of light wear to all four corners. Close inspection reveals extremely faint horizontal rub marks in the lower right quadrant and a number of drying cracks, with associated minute losses of paint in places throughout. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
