Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the bull's eye tends more towards orange in the original. Condition: This work is in good condition. There is minor wear to all four corners and edges inherent to the artist's choice of medium and working process. There is a small hole in the upper left and right corners original to the work. There are small spots of retouching throughout that fluoresce when examined under ultra-violet light.
