Robert Edward Morrison (1851-1924) Portrait of a lady in a black lace mantilla with yellow flowers in her hair Signed and dated 1886 u.r., oil on canvas 59 x 49cm Condition report: Oil on canvas which is unlined with a Winsor and Newton supplier stamp on the reverse. The paint layer is in a good condition overall although there is abrasion and loss around the edges caused by framing. There are areas of overpaint in the left hand of the background, the sitter's right shoulder and the sleeve. The overpaint is loosely applied and is fairly well matched to the original. The varnish is clear, even and glossy. The frame is in a good condition with some wear to the gilding at the edges.
