Condition
This work is in very good condition. The canvas is lined with a non-wax adhesive. The paint layer is clean and varnished. Retouches have been added in the water in the center of the right side and in the landscape on the far right. There are a few other retouches in the water in the lower center, a group of spots in the center of the sky, and a couple in the upper right. The work should be hung as is.
