Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the left photograph contains fewer magenta undertones and the reds in the right photograph are deeper and richer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection in raking light reveals a very small number of minute and unobtrusive hairline surface scratches in a few isolated places.
