Condition

The colours in the printed catalogue are fairly accurate. The paper is attached to the backing board in multiple areas. The edges are unevenly cut. Traces of glue, slight undulation and tiny pinholes are located throughout the surface and are inherent to artist's technique. This work is in very good original condition.
