- oil on panel

Condition
The panel is flat, even and ensuring a stable support. Ultraviolet light reveals a handful of minor scattered signs of retouching, notably a spot above the cannon in the lower left and small strokes in the foreground in the lower right, and minor spots addressing frame rubbing at the extreme edges. The varnish layers fluoresce more opaquely over the foreground of the composition however this is unlikely to conceal any notable retouching. This painting is in very good condition, and is ready to hang.
Presented in a decorative gilt frame.
