Condition Report:
Condition:
This work is in good condition. There is a minor curved tip on the top right piece and a marker mark on the reverse of the centre right piece, possibly inherent of the artist's working process. There is evidence of previous restoration in several places (adhesive residue). There are various shallow scratches in several places on the artwork. There is one deeper scratch on a piece on the left hand side from the angle it was viewed. The reflective nature of the surface means that fingerprints and dust are very visible.

Colour:
The catalogue illustration is very accurate; however, the overall work is shinier and more reflective in the original work.
