A great opportunity to own an original work by this artist.

Measurements: image measures 36 x 37cms.

Condition: Framed behind glass, a couple of faint soft creases on the paper to the upper right but this is how it was framed, otherwise condition of the painting is great with strong and fresh colours.  The frame is a silver metallic coated frame and has some surface scratching as can be seen. This can be painted over so we have included the frame but happy to take it apart and just ship the painting for a reduced postage cost.  Please note the frame is not factored into the sale price which is based on the value of the artwork only.  Overseas buyers: shipping does not include the frame.
