Condition
Work is in good condition. Canvas has not been lined. Surface has a very heavy impasto. There is cracking in the thickest pigments especially below the boat and in the green pigments of the tree. Where the canvas is stretched around the edges there is some loss of the pigment. Under UV light: a masking varnish is somewhat hard to read through, a few heavy strokes of inpainting around the cracks. Otherwise fine.
