Condition

The canvas is not lined. There is an uneven varnish, through which the UV light cannot fully penetrate. There appear to be no signs of retouching visible under UV light. There are six tiny pinholes running along the extreme left edge, probably inherent to the artist's process. There is some light frame abrasion running along the extreme left and right edges. Othewise, this work is in overall good condition. There is a rich impasto to the light pink flowers. Colours: The colours are much more vibrant in the original, compared to the printed catalogue.
