Condition
This painting has been lined but has not been cleaned for many years and is noticeably dirty. However, beneath this very obvious dirt layer is what appears to be a very healthy paint layer. The signature, date and inscription in the lower left are all undamaged and original.
The only apparent restoration is in the water in the center of the picture where there is a small slightly bleached area above the tree. The remainder of the picture is in beautiful state and will clean very successfully.
