Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is warmer and tends more towards olive in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals a few shallow and unobtrusive surface scratches in places. All surface irregularities are likely to be inherent to the artist's choice of medium and working process. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light
