Condition

Work is in excellent condition. Canvas is not lined. Faint vertical stretcher bar mark is visible at center. There is some minor frame abrasion at the left side of the upper edge. There is a layer of varnish on the surface, which, under UV light, is difficult to read through. There is a pindot retouch in the sky near the horizon line to the left of the sail. A few small areas of pooled varnish fluoresce, otherwise fine. No other inpainting is apparent.
