Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate; although the blue is lighter in the original work and the pink tone is more prominent.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. There is extremely minor wear to the lower left corner tip and some very light rubbing in all four corners. Upon very close inspection there are a few extremely fine tension cracks in a few places along the extreme vertical edges. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
