Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the background is slightly warmer and the orange less saturated in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The edges of the work are frayed. There are horizontal and vertical folding creases. Close inspection reveals some very light discolouration to some of the extreme outer edges, and a few minor media accretions scattered in isolated places elsewhere. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
