Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly deeper in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. Each sheet is hinged verso to the mount in the upper two corners. Close inspection reveals patches of skinning and media accretions scattered in places, all of which are likely to be original.
