Condition

The painting sits on its original canvas. The canvas is quite thick, and would benefit from a light cleaning. The composition does not seem to be varnished : no repaint is visible to the naked eye. The matter is thick in some areas, where the canvas is slightly visible (especially in the trees). Perfect condition.
