Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly brighter in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There are scratches, rub marks and nicks throughout, which are in keeping with artist's working process and choice of media, and most of which are likely to be original. There is evidence of rubbing to the protruding elements on the corners, which is consistent with how the work is displayed. Close inspection reveals some dust which has deposited in the recesses.
