Condition
Colour:
The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the paper tone tends slightly more towards a soft cream in the original.
Condition:
This work is in very good condition. The sheet is attached verso to the backing board in several places. The sheet undulates extremely slightly. Upon extremely close inspection, there are a very small number of tiny and unobtrusive fly spots towards the left half of the composition.
