Condition
Work is in good condition. Canvas is lined. There is a layer of varnish on the surface. Some think craquelure along faint central vertical stretcher bar mark. Under UV light: several strokes of inpainting at extreme lower right edge to address prior frame abrasion, and one dot of inpainting just above trees at right. Otherwise fine.
