Condition report:

Purchased from Walker Galleries Ltd., Harrogate, after 1995 exhibiton of Church's work. Not dated, possibly from the late 1950s.

Painting is in an overall good condition. There are some areas of minor discolouration to the paint, the area to the right hand side of the wine bottle shows a small area of fine cracking to the paint layer, there also appears to be a small area of infill, possibly to disguise an abrasion, above the wine bottle. There are some very tiny pinprick sized craters in the white passage of paint beside the shoulder of the wine bottle. There is also a hairline crack and tiny speck of white paint on the left handside of the image.
