The composition is confident and practiced, the flower handling done with short staccato brushstrokes characteristic of a trained Continental painter working in the 1880 to 1910 period.

Craquelure is present throughout the painted surface and is most pronounced in the dark upper left quadrant, consistent with age. Minor paint loss and abrasion are present at the edges and corners of the board. White speckling is visible in the lower portion of the surface and should be examined in person to determine whether it is minor paint chip loss, gesso showing through thin paint, or surface debris. The reverse is painted green-grey.
