The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is slightly brighter in the original work, especially the yellow areas. The work is executed on its original canvas and is not relined. Some areas along the edges have been left unpainted by the artist, intrinsic to his technique. Under Ultra Violet light inspection, there is no evidence of restoration. This work is in excellent condition.
