Description:
Markings:
signed and titled 'Colour Question Allen Jones' lower margin
Condition:
The work is framed under glass, in a brown wooden frame, presented in a window mount, hinged to its backing in places along the upper horizontal edge from the reverse. The vertical and lower horizontal edges of the sheet are deckled, inherent to the artist's materials used. There is minor discolouration to the extreme edges of the sheet and evidence of historic tab staining to the lower left horizontal edge, all not visible when the work is framed. There is a fingerprint to the lower left horizontal edge, a linear surface mark (approx. 3 cm in length) to the upper left vertical edge and minor accretions to the upper horizontal edge, only visible on very close inspection and not visible when the work is framed. Otherwise, there are no apparent condition issues with this work.
