Condition
Condition: This work is in good condition. There are few visible parts of loss to the red varnish, displaying the light red underpaint, in particular on the upper right corner, along the right outer edges, bottom right corner, along parts of the left outer edge and around the centre which are also shown in the catalogue illustration. The work could benefit from further varnish consolidation.
Colour: The catalogue illustration is accurate; however, the overall tonality is brighter and with a nice shine to it due to the artist's choice of medium.
