JAN VAN HUYSUM | Study of a vase of flowers

Hinge mounted in two places along the upper edge to a modern cream mount. There is a very slight horizontal crease running across the upper half of the sheet and the remains of hanging lines, created during the manufacture of the paper, roughly an inch below. There is some minor foxing to the lower right corner. The sheet is in otherwise superb condition with the medium fresh and vibrant throughout and the image strong. Sold in a modern giltwood frame.
