Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is deeper and richer and tends more towards fuschia in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals some superficial scratches in places to the surface of the table and a small chip to one of the extreme long edges.
