Condition
"The following condition report has been provided by Henry Gentle, an independent restorer who is not an employee of Sotheby's.
The original canvas is lined and the paint is stable. The paint surface has been extensively restored in almost every area except the flowers in a basket, the paint here is in a good condition. There is the remains of an old varnish which has blanched in some areas. The existing final varnish has degraded and no longer saturates the paint and is moderately discoloured."
