Condition
The picture is unlined and in excellent condition. There are no signs of craquelure. The paint surface may be a little dirty and might benefit from a light clean.
UNDER ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT
There are flecked areas of retouching, mainly in the sky - which appear to be cosmetic and are not excessive. There are also retouchings along the edges where the paint surface has been rubbed by the rebate of the frame.
FRAME
