Condition
The canvas is unlined. There is a small glue patch evident in the lower right of the reverse. The picture surface is in generally good condition and a pentiment is visible in the roofline, which seems to have changed from half-round to triangular. Under UV, the work flouresces both green and purple, though the purple does not seem to indicate inpainting.
