Acquired at the above sale by the present owner

Condition

The canvas is unlined. There is some minor craquelure to the upper left quadrant of the sky and to the brown pigments along the ridge in the lower left foreground. When examined under UV light, there appears to be minor retouching to the aforementioned areas of craquelure in the lower left quadrant as well as minor cosmetic retouching along the periphery of the canvas, likely the result of frame rubbing. The painting is in largely very good condition with strong impasto.
