Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly lighter and softer in the original. Condition: This work is in good and original condition. There is light undulation to the paper in the top right and lower left corners. Very close inspection reveals a small number of very fine and unobtrusive tears, some of which have been repaired, on the extreme outer edges. There is evidence of wear along the lower edge.
