Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is brighter in the original work. The work was inspected framed. The edges of the sheet are uneven, and there are two creases located on the upper edge, one on the right corner and the other 14 cm from the right. There are some light dirt marks through out the sheet. All of these are inherent to the artist's process. This work is in very good condition.
