Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the green is much brighter and has more blue tones in it. Condition: The work is in very good condition. Close inspection in raking light reveals a few shiny spots of artist's varnish to the extreme right hand edge, which do not fluorescence when examined under ultra violet light.
