Condition

The canvas has not been lined and is securely attached to a keyed wooden stretcher which appears to be of the time. Faint, horizontal stretcher marks, corresponding to the upper and lower stretcher members, are visible. Inspection under ultra-violet light reveals clusters of small spots of cosmetic retouching, which all appears to be addressing old paint flaking, in the far lower left corner, along the upper framing edge, and in the sky above the topiary. Some other small spots are also visible in the ground towards the centre of the lower framing edge. Otherwise, this work in overall in good condition and is ready to hang. Presented in a green, wooden frame.
