Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although it fails to fully convey the reflective nature of the aluminium leaf in the background.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals a very small number of pinhead sized and unobtrusive specks of loss in a few isolated places to the aluminium leaf. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
