Condition

STRUCTURE The panel is sound. There is a very fine craquelure pattern, mainly in the trees - only visible upon close inspection; otherwise the work appears in very good overall condition. ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT Under UV light there appears to be a very minor area of retouching in the water near the centre of the lower edge. FRAME Held in a gilt plaster frame.
