Condition
Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the lower band is actually brown in the original and the one above is a deep green. The overall tonality is slightly darker in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals some very light wear in places to the outer edges. Some dust has settled on the surface. Further close inspection reveals a few paint losses in places to the protruding ridges. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultraviolet light.
