Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is much brighter and more vibrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals some faint rubbing to the extreme outer edges, towards the upper left corner. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
