Condition

Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly brighter in the original, and it fails to convey the iridescent nature of the prints. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals a few paint losses along the edges of each frame.
