Condition

The canvas is lined. The surface is slightly dirty overall and could benefit from a cleaning. There is a semi-circular tear to the canvas in the trees toward upper left, extending one inch into the sky and with an associated cracking to the paint. Under UV, there are a few very small scattered spots of inpainting, mostly in the lower register. The work is in good condition.
