Condition
The sheet tends more towards cream in the original work, with less pink undertones than in the image. Moreover, the work is slightly brighter.
The work was inspected framed.
The upper edge presents two spots of discoloration, consistent with the tape used to fix the sheet, visible in the catalogue illustration. A tiny speck of dirt is visible under close inspection along the left edge, close to the lower corner.
This work is in good condition.
