Condition
The canvas is not lined. UV examination reveals a small spot of retouching to the right of the top most mimosa and to the top most petal of the lower red flower. There is a very small dent to the canvas towards the upper right edge. There are some fine lines of craquelure to the red pigment and some flecks of paint loss to the most thickly applied pigments. There are some scattered pin sized fly spots. There is some very minor frame rubbing to the right part of the upper edge. Overall this work is in good condition.
