Condition
Colour:
The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although it fails to convey the fluorescent neon quality of the work and the reflective qualities of the mirrored plates.
Condition:
This work is in very good and working condition. Extremely close inspection reveals a superficial scuff to the lower right hand edge of the mirrored plate of the lower element and a media accretion to the lower centre of the upper mirrored plate. Further very close inspection reveals a few faint and superficial handling marks in places to the edges of each element and a light layer of dust.
