Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the background is slightly cooler in the original. The catalogue illustration also fails to fully convey the richly textured quality of the brown pigment in the upper right quadrant, apparent in the original.
Condition:
Unexamined out of its frame, this work is in very good condition. No restoration is apparent under ultraviolet light.
