Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly lighter in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals some light wear to the corner tips, a minute speck of loss to the centre right edge, and a tiny loss towards the lower edge, approximately 50 cm from the lower left corner. Further extremely close inspection reveals a few thin drying cracks to the ticker light blue paint to the right hand side of the composition. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
