Literature
Exhibition Catalogue, New York, Peter Blum Gallery, Tacita Dean: The Russian Ending, 2001-2, illustration of another example in colour
Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality of some of the prints is warmer and tends more towards sepia in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. All of the edges are slightly deckled. The sheets are attached verso to the backing boards in several places. Very close inspection reveals a faint handling crease to the centre of the right side edge of the 5th sheet, a small number of very faint and unobtrusive media accretions in a few isolated places in the borders of the 10th and 19th sheets, and a light handling mark towards the centre of the left edge of the 11th sheet.
