Condition
The unframed canvas has a good relining which has not flattened the paint surface. The paint surface is in fair condition with the impasto well conserved. The canvas was possibly originally larger and reduced to a circle and then relined. The still-life element is in good condition. Inspection under UV light reveals some minor scattered retouchings but otherwsie reveals the good overall condition.
