Condition

The canvas is not lined. Examination under UV light reveals a layer of milky varnish preventing the UV light from penetrating. There is a small spot of fluorescence, possibly pigment. There are two small paint losses to the centre and left part of the upper edge, as well as some minor paint losses to the haystack on the far right of the composition. This work is in overall good condition.
