Notas :
Condition_report : Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although they are slightly warmer and lighter in the original and there is more overall contrast. The illustration fails to fully convey the glossy sheen in passages of the black pigment. Condition: Please refer to the department for a professional condition report.
