Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Visible in the catalogue illustration, there are signs of oxidisation throughout, which are in keeping with the artist's choice of medium. Extremely close inspection reveals some spots of very light burnishing to the tips of the protruding elements as well as a few extremely shallow and unobtrusive superficial scratches in isolated places.
