Condition
This painting is clean and in overall very good condition. It has not been relined. Under UV, minute brush strokes of orange floresce in the highlights on the flowers, at the bottom right of the vase, and in the hoof of the figurine, probably a result of the artist's cadmium pigment. There is some very minor buckling of the canvas along the left side, but not at all distracting.
