Condition
The canvas is not lined. There is a milky layer of varnish preventing UV light from fully penetrating, however UV examination reveals some spots of retouching to the lower left corner, to the upper right corner and some spots of retouching to the flowers. There are further scattered flecks of retouching throughout. There are some small surface scratches with associated spots of paint loss in the upper right corner and some further larger scratches towards the lower right corner, as visible in the catalogue illustration. There is some minor frame rubbing along all four edges with associated paint losses which are not visible when framed. This work is in overall good condition.
