There is very minor paint loss to edges, especially the left edge where painting is loose in frame and this edge is visible. There is a minor scratch near the logs in the lower right corner. Under UV no pigments fluoresce but varnish prevents a conclusive analysis. Held in a simple wood strip frame. Unexamined out of frame.
