11.19.25 - In my opinion regarding LOT: 3074- please note that I am not an expert on such works, I do not see an apparent insect amid the flowers, a UV light examination reveals the canvas is overall intact with no apparent evidence of repair, I observe a heavy old varnish layer, a small abrasion at the upper left corner and two small blemishes at the upper left and upper right quadrants, all very minor, there is overall stable fine craquelure and a faint stretcher line at the lower edge, the colors and detail remain well retained, the rear canvas shows some discoloration and spotting, the frame has a small loss at the bottom, as described the title tag has a misspelling of the artist’s name, there are rubs to the painted finish and stable visible seams at the corner joints, there are no evident rips, tears, or restorations observed
