Condition
The canvas is not lined. Inspection under UV light reveals scattered strokes of inpainting in the larger red rose, and a couple minor strokes in the smaller pink rose likely in order to stabilise craquelure. There are lines of craquelure to the two roses, which appear to be secure. There is a pindot loss in the upper half of the pink rose. The work is good condition.
