Condition
The canvas is not lined. There is a layer of varnish preventing the UV light from fully penetrating, however UV examination does reveal a few small spots of retouching towards the centre of the right edge. There is some slight frame rubbing along the left part of the upper edge. There is some shrinkage to the thicker pigments of the flowers and some associated minor paint loss on the third flower from left. Otherwise, this work is in overall very good condition.
