Condition
The canvas is not lined. UV examination reveals a 3cm-long line of retouching to the lower right part of the table. There is some minor paint rubbing to the framing edges and some stable paint shrinkage to the plant in the left hand vase. Otherwise, this work is in overall good condition.
Colours: fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, though overall lighter and the whites are more prominent in the original.
