Condition

Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is slightly cooler and the green tones are brighter and more vibrant in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. The sheet is hinged verso to the backing board in all four corners and undulates slightly. Very close inspection reveals faint creases to both upper corner tips.
