Lined. Minor surface dirt and dust and a few isolated pin dot accretions. Scattered, stable craquelure. Frame abrasion at the extreme edges. Under UV: varnish fluoresces green unevenly. A few sparse, old pin dot retouches fluoresce in the sky. Older, small areas of inpainting fluoresce along the lower edge, with brushier old inpainting along the left edge to address prior frame abrasion. Ready to hang in its current state.
