Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the image does not accurately convey the rich texture of the fabrics and the white impasto. All collaged elements are stable. There are a few hairline cracks in places to the thicker areas of impasto, and two thicker impastos on the right side are missing. This work is in very good original condition.
