Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is lighter, brighter and the background tends more towards cream in the original. The work was inspected framed. The lower edge is very slightly wavy. Each of the four corners presents a faint mark of the tape holding the sheet to the mount, visible especially on the lower right corner. This work is in very good condition.
