Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Visible only when examined upon extremely close inspection in raking light, there are a few shallow and superficial surface scratches isolated in places to the plexiglass.
