Condition Report

The canvas has been lined. Craquelure is visible throughout. The paint surface is dirty and would benefit from a clean. An uneven varnish makes a UV light reading difficult. There appears to be an area of retouching to the sky upper left and upper right, retouching to framing edges, strengthening to some of the rigging and a few areas elsewhere.
