Galerie Nelson, Lyon
Acquired directly from the above by the present owner

Colours: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the overall tonality is brighter in the original. The catalogue illustration fails to convey the shimmering quality of the aluminium backing sheet. Condition: This work is in very good condition. All four edges of the paper sheet are deckled. The sheet is pinned to the aluminium backing in all four corners. There are a few scattered and unobtrusive fly spots towards the centre of the composition. All other surface irregularities are likely inherent to the artist’s choice of medium and working process.
