Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals a minute and unobtrusive media accretion towards the centre of the top left quadrant and a further pinhead-sized surface irregularity towards the centre of the top right quadrant, likely to be inherent to the artist's working process. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
