Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the paper tone tends more towards a light cream, and the light grey contains more blue undertones in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached verso to the backing board in several places and undulates slightly. The edges are slightly deckled. There are artist's pinholes in all four corners and to the centre of the upper edge. There are some light handling marks along the edges, all of which are likely inherent to the artist's working process.
