Condition

Canvas is unlined. The edges are reinforced with tape. Pindot paint loss in the green tree toward upper right of the foliage. The canvas has likely been restretched, causing a few vertical lines of separation of pigment in the sky. Under UV light two one-inch ares of retouching fluoresce in the sky near upper right corner, likely to address this separation of the canvas, otherwise fine. This work is in good condition.
