Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the background is richer, the colours are slightly deeper and the innermost line is green in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition.. Close inspection reveals some light wear along the left edge. Further very close inspection in raking light reveals some unobtrusive surface irregularities towards the upper and lower edge, that appear to be inherent to the artist's choice of medium and working process. Visible only in raking light, there are several short, shallow and unobtrusive surface scratches to the resin in isolated places, not affecting the image. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
