Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are some unobtrusive drying cracks isolated to the black paint, and evidence of light wear and handling marks towards the edges and corner tips. The canvas is slightly slack. Close inspection reveals some light rubmarks in places. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
