Condition

Glue relining. Painting presentable as is. Overall there is very good preservation of paint surface. There is some thinness in some of the darks of the foliage. Ultraviolet reveals retouching along top and bottom edges. There are two areas of retouching in the foliage at upper left and through large (right-most) tree trunk. Some scattered retouches here and there, but these have all been applied well, and no further work is necessary. In a carved and gilt wood frame.
