Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is darker in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Close inspection reveals a few tiny losses in places along the outer edges. Further close inspection reveals evidence of an impact towards the lower right corner with associated losses, and a rub marks towards the centre lower edge. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
