Condition

Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the overall tonality of the background fabric is lighter and brighter in the original and the felt is more vibrant. Condition: This work is in very good and original condition. All surface irregularities, frayed edges and staining are in keeping with the artist's choice of using found materials and consistent with their natural ageing.
