Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although there is slightly more contrast in the original. Condition: Unexamined out of its frame, this work is in very good condition. The sheet undulates slightly. Very close inspection in raking light reveals a few shallow and unobtrusive surface scratches in places.
