Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the blue tends more towards a bright cobalt in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is evidence of light wear and handling in places along the extreme outer edges and corner tips. Very close inspection reveals a tiny speck of paint loss to the extreme lower edge towards the bottom right corner. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
