Condition:

The canvas is not lined. Inspection under UV light reveals some areas of retouching to all four quadrants and towards the edges (the biggest of which is approx. 8cm with other areas ranging from 2-6cm); there are fine lines of retouching associated to historic paint cracking to the left half of the canvas, to the sky and to the lower right quadrant. There are fine stable lines of craquelure visible in places. There is a faint vertical stretcher bar mark to the middle of the canvas and an artist's pinhole to the centre of the lower edge. There is some general light surface dirt and minor frame abrasion with some associated pigment loss to the edges. This work is in overall fairly good condition.
