Condition

Colour: The pink and green tones are much brighter and more vibrant and the grey tones are deeper and richer in the original. The blue stripe in the lower right quadrant tends more towards teal in the original. Please refer to the online catalogue for a more accurate representation of the colours in this work. Condition: This work is in very good condition. Extremely close inspection reveals a minute spot of extremely fine drying cracks to the area of grey pigment to the centre left of the composition. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra violet light.
