Condition
The board is stable. UV examination reveals a 5cm-long line of retouching at the centre of the right edge, away from the figure. Close inspection reveals some very minor frame rubbing along the extreme lower edge. Otherwise, this work is in overall good condition.
Colours: fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, though the colours are brighter and more contrasted in the original.
