Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is more saturated and vibrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection in raking light reveals a few thin and unobtrusive surface scratches in places to the plexiglass, and some minor wear to some of the corner tips of the frame.
