Condition

Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is bluer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals a pattern of fine craquelure throughout. Further close inspection reveals a few short cracks that appear to have been stabilised and fluoresce lightly when examined under ultra-violet light.
