Condition
Colour: The colour in the catalogue illustration is fairly accurate although the overall tonality is slightly cooler in the original. Condition: This work is in good condition. Close inspection reveals some imperfections and tiny media accretions in the print in isolated places throughout. Further close inspection reveals three tiny specs of loss; one to the center of the black pigment and two to the top left hand corner tip of the blue square. Inspection in raking light reveals a few superficial scuffs to the Plexiglas and the frame of the work. There is a short scratch towards the left lower quadrant of the composition.
