Condition
Condition:
This work is in very good condition, some hairline craquelure to the upper central axis of the canvas, a 1cm paint loss to the lower right section, all inherent to the artist's choice of medium. Two horizontal minor undulations due to the contact with the stretcher on the reverse. No signs of restoration under the UV light.
Colour:
The colour in the catalogue illustration is accurate, however, it fails to convey the brightness and vivacity of the colours in the original work.
