Condition

The canvas is not lined and there do not appear to be any signs of retouching under UV light. There is some stable paint shrinkage to some of the green pigments. There are a few fine lines of craquelure in places, most prominently to the centre of the composition and which relate to a vertical stretcher bar. Otherwise, this work is in overall good condition.
