Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the paper tone tends more towards a soft cream in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is float mounted to the backing board and undulates very slightly. All four edges are deckled and all collaged elements are stable. Extremely close inspection reveals a few minute nicks and thin, shallow scratches in places to the collaged element, which are likely to be original to the work's execution. There is a short unobtrusive tear to the lower edge of the sheet which has been repaired.
