Condition
The canvas has been lined. The surface is covered with a clear layer of varnish and the colors appear extremely fresh and vivid. Under UV light: certain pigments fluoresce including the yellows in the left-most part of the trees, though a masking layer of varnish is difficult to read through. The work is in good condition.
