Henry Schouten (Jos Klaus, 1857-1927, Dutch), "Still Life of Flowers in a Pale Blue Vase," c. 1900, oil on canvas, signed lower right, presented in an elaborate gilt and gesso frame, H.- 15 in., W.- 10 3/4 in.

In general, this piece is in good condition. However, there is a visible border, approximately one inch in depth from current frame, where the painting had previously been stretched. This border is most noticeable on the left and right side where a crease is visible. Some craquelure is also visible in the flowers, specifically the white flowers. Frame loss on bottom proper right. The frame gesso is also cracked on top & bottom of proper left. A handsome example. ______________________________________________________________________________ ALL PROPERTY IS SOLD “AS IS.” NO STATEMENT REGARDING CONDITION OF ANY ITEM, WHETHER IT IS MADE ORALLY AT THE AUCTION OR ANY OTHER TIME, OR IN WRITING IN THE CATALOGUE OR ELSEWHERE, SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A WARRANTY, REPRESENTATION, OR ASSUMPTION OF LIABILITY.
