Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is warmer and richer, with soft yellow undertones throughout the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is intermittent light wear and light rub marks in places along all four edges, notably towards the centre of the right edge. There are a few surface irregularities with a few tiny associated losses, and a few small media accretions scattered in a few places throughout. No restoration is apparent when examined under ultra-violet light.
