Condition
The canvas has not been lined. There is a pattern of hairline craquelure throughout, which appears to be stable. Ultra-violet light reveals some minor filling of retouching in the craquelure in the tree to the left, one spot towards the upper left corner and one along the upper edge. The picture is otherwise in very good condition and ready to hang.
Presented in a decorative gilt frame.
