Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are a few spots of wear along the edges. Extremely close inspection in raking light reveals a few isolated surface scratches in places, some of which are likely to be originals. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
