Condition
Canvas is unlined though the edges are reinforced with tape. The work is slightly dirty though the colors are still vibrant and the impasto is well-defined. Under ultraviolet light five pin dots of fluorescence appear in the right-most tree; these appear to be retouches. There may also be several tiny dots of old retouching in the sky at the upper left corner. Otherwise fine. Overall this work is in very good condition.
