Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality contains fewer magenta undertones in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. Each sheet is attached verso to its mount in several places. The horizontal edges of each sheet are deckled. All collage elements are stable. Extremely close inspection reveals two very short and unobtrusive tears to the extreme upper edge of the second panel, approximately 20 cm from the upper left corner, likely original to work's execution.
