Condition
The canvas is not lined and there do not appear to be any signs of retouching visible under UV light. There are pinholes to the upper right and left corners. There are some very fine lines of craquelure predominately to the sky. There is some minor frame rubbing along the extreme edges. There is a rich impasto and this work is in very good condition.
