Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the skintone is lighter and the background tends more towards blue in the original.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection in raking light reveals some faint and unobtrusive rub marks in isolated places. Further extremely close inspection reveals a pinprick-sized media accretion to the left of the figure's mouth.
