Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is deeper and richer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There are some networks of drying cracks to the heavily impastoed areas throughout the composition, with an associated speck of loss to the white paint, towards the right edge, approximately 75 cm from the lower edge. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
