Condition

The canvas is unlined and well-stretched. Stains appear throughout the work, particularly in the sky of the upper quadrants and along the four edges of the canvas. Black circles, not inherent to work, are intermittently spread along the top edge of the canvas. Under ultraviolet inspection, fluorescing occurs within the clouds in the lower left quadrant. Overall, this work is in good condition.
