Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly deeper in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There is a faint rub mark to the circular element. Close inspection reveals a faint and unobtrusive scuff mark to the vertical element. All other surface irregularities are inherent to the artist's choice of medium.
