Condition

Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the wooden frame tends more towards a greyish white colour in the original. Condition: This work is in good condition. There are a few cracks in the wooden frame mainly at the bottom and at both sides of the work (visible in the catalogue illustration). All other imperfections are due to ageing.
