Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the first panel is lighter and brighter, the background in the third panel tends more towards light cream and the fourth panel is lighter and brighter with the green tending towards neon in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. Each sheet is attached verso to the backing board and undulates slightly. All collaged elements are stable. Extremely close inspection reveals some minute and unobtrusive pinprick sized media accretions to the green collaged element in the fourth panel.
