Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the orange tends more towards a light pink in the original.

This work is in very good condition. All collaged elements are stable and secure. Close inspection reveals some minor skinning to the lower left edge, and a few creases towards the lower left corner tip. The adhesive residue has yellowed slightly overtime.
