Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the white is lighter in the original.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals some light wear to the edges, and some light drying cracks to the horizontal blue stripe. There is a small media accretion towards the centre of the upper right quadrant, and a surface irregularity to the canvas towards the lower edge, 20 cm. from the lower edge. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
