Condition
The work is in good condition overall, as is the canvas, which is clear and taut. There is evidence of minor wear around the edges of the painting due to abrasions from the frame, but this does not affect the quality of the work as the paint layers are healthy overall. Examination under ultraviolet light shows restoration on the top right corner, 3 spots along the left border, and very light touch ups on the top border (sky area). However, this is not visible with the naked eye. Framed.
