Condition
The panel is sound. There are a few scattered studio stains and some light handling marks. There are a few nicks and scratches to the surface to the panel which are possibly original to the support, predominantly in the sails of the boat which is second from left, at upper centre and in the upper right quadrant. There are some small nicks to the edges of the panel, notably in the upper corners, where there are small losses. Some further lines of surface abrasion running vertically across the composition.This work is in overall good condition.
