Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the figure's skin tone is richer and more saturated and the paper tone tends more towards a soft cream in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached to the mount in the upper two corners. The lower edge is deckled. Visible only when unframed, there is some light discolouration towards the edges.
