Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although there are fewer red undertones in the first work. Condition: These works are in very good condition. Each sheet is float-mounted and the edges are irregularly cut. There are folding creases, small tears and a small hole to the second work, which appears to be original. There is paper skinning in places to the sheets which also appears to be in keeping with the artist's working process.
