Klabal Gallery, Connecticut
Acquired from the above in April 1999

The canvas is unlined. The surface, particularly the white pigments, is richly textured. Some cracquelure is visible predominantly in the thickest pigments. The surface is slightly dirty. Several pindot losses are visible. 9 toward the far upper center, 2 toward the extreme upper right edge, and 2 near the tree trunk at the left edge. Under UV light a few tiny scattered retouches are visible in the upper left quadrant and at the center of the right edge. This work is in overall good condition.
