Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although they fail to fully convey the three-dimensionality of the collage, and there are fewer red undertones in the original. Condition: Unexamined out of its frame, this work is in very good condition. All the edges are deckled. All collaged elements are stable and secure.
