Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate. Condition: This work is in good condition. The sheet is held by plastic pockets on all four edges. Only visible when examined out of the frame, there is evidence of rubbing to the extreme edges of the sheet, notably to the lower right of the lower edge, which has three minute nicks and some light creasing. This does not affect the main image. Close inspection of the sheet out of its frame also reveals some evidence of light and unobtrusive wear to the extreme edges. There is a faint line of mount rubbing to the white mount, approximately 0.5 cm from the edge of the image.
