Condition
The canvas is not lined and there do not appear to be any signs of retouching visible under UV light. There are a few fine lines of craquelure, very slightly raised in places and some light surface dirt. Otherwise this work is in overall very good condition.
Colours: overall fairly accurate in the printed catalogue, though the green is slightly fresher in the original.
