Condition

Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the pinks are more intense in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals a short hairline crack to the extreme lower left corner of the lowermost panel and a tiny speck of loss to the lower left hand corner of the uppermost panel. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
