Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter and more vibrant, with less magenta undertones in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals some faint rubmarks to the extreme bottom corner tips, the top right corner tip and to the extreme left hand edge. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
