Condition
Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate, although the mahogany is deeper and richer in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. All collaged elements appear stable and all cracks, losses and lifting are inherent to the artist's working process. Close inspection reveals a small tear to the upper centre left of the fine wooden layer. Very close inspection reveals a few unobtrusive scuffs and rub marks to the extreme edges of the artist's frame.
