STRUCTURE
The panel is flat. There is a horizontal crack, approximately 6inches running from the centre of the left edge to 1inch beyond the right-most tree. This crack appears to be stable but the picture might benefit from localised filling and retouching. The paint surface is a little dirty with specks of surface dirt throughout.
UNDER ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT
There are no signs of retouching.
FRAME
This picture is contained in a simple gilt frame with a canvas inset.
