Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the sheet is a creamier egg yellow and the overall tonality of the colours are more vibrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition overall. The sheet is hinged verso intermittently along the edges to the mat. There is a slight undulation to the sheet, inherent to the artist's working method.
