Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the background tends more towards turquoise and the panda towards pink in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There is wear to all four corner tips, and a very thin, unobtrusive and stable tension crack running intermittently along the extreme outer edges. Very close inspection reveals two tiny losses to the extreme left-facing edge approximately 20cm from the upper left corner, and a further minute loss in the upper right corner. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
