30 years ago - painted Proton rocket Andora

In 1992, Berlin-born Pop Art painter Andreas Hoge (aka " Andora ") was commissioned to paint the fairing of a Proton rocket. Kunst und der Weltraum 1992 Baikonour project.
This particular Proton launch vehicle also carried the "West" logo on the side.
Looks like a late evening/night launch so 2 April 1992 or the 30 July 1992 launch ?
Giving the artist time, was this the 30 July 1992 launch?
