Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate. Condition: This work is in very good and original condition. Very close inspection reveals a few very thin and unobtrusive cracks, some of which have associated small and unobtrusive specks of loss, all of which are likely to be inherent to the artist's choice of medium and working process. Extremely close inspection reveals some superficial dust fibres in places.
