Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is warmer in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There is evidence of minor wear and faint stretching cracks in places to the extreme outer edges and overturn side edges. There are two pinhead sized losses to the top left corner. Close inspection reveals a small media accretion towards the bottom edge approximately 15 centimetres from the bottom left corner.There is evidence of very light mould on the reverse, which fluoresces lighter under ultra-violet light.
