Condition
The canvas is not lined. Under UV light, two small areas of retouching fluoresce in the upper left quadrant and in the lower right corner with small associated patches on the reverse. Some very thin lines of retouching also fluoresce along upper part of the left edge and along the right edge suggesting previous restoration to old frame abrasion with some smaller scattered dots of retouching in the blue pigment between the tree and the church. This work is in overall good condition.
