Joshua Hargrave Sams Mann (English, 1826-1886),
'Time Of Roses', a half length portrait of a young girl holding a basket of flowers,
Oil on canvas,
Signed lower left and dated '1871' lower right, titled verso,
61cm x 50cm,
Gilt framed
The canvas has been re-lined. The paint surface shows fine surface craquelure, but no obvious damage. Examination under UV reveals evidence of some restoration, presumably undertaken when the picture was re-lined. The frame appears to be structurally sound, but the gilt finish appears to have been over-painted in places.
