Notable Features
Prominent use of high-relief texture (impasto) and a metallic gold border around the petals; signed 'Liz 23' in the lower right corner.
Condition Issues
None visible; heavy impasto carries a minor risk of cracking if subjected to temperature fluctuations, but appears sound.
Conservation Recommendations
Display in a dust-protected environment; clean only with a soft, dry brush to avoid snagging the raised textures. Avoid direct UV exposure to prevent fading of the pink pigments.
