Condition

This work is in original unlined condition. The work presents well; the surface is bright and the colors remain vibrant. There is minor surface dirt and dust and scattered, barely perceptible craquelure. Under UV: there are areas of broadly applied retouching as well as finer areas of retouching to address thinness scattered throughout the sky and the lower corners.
