Each scene retains rich, vibrant coloration throughout. In overall fine condition. Each has light glue residue to the reverse. BLUE-STRIPED GRUNT has some discoloration to the background beneath the tail of the middle fish, however this likely occurred while the artist was creating the work. There are few small areas of the color running on the BLUE-STRIPED GRUNT.
