Condition
The canvas has been lined. The picture and the picture surface are in good condition. Portions of the background are abraded but this seems to have been part of the artist's creative process. Under UV: no apparent inpainting, though the dark petals fluoresce slightly, perhaps because of pentimento by the artist.
