Condition Report
The canvas has been lined. Fine craquelure is visible throughout. The paint surface is dirty and will benefit from a clean. There is a small loss, diameter 0.3cm, to the lower left corner, and a few further scattered small nicks and surface abrasions. Abrasion is visible to the framing edges. UV light reveals an uneven varnish, areas of retouching to the sky, particularly to the dark cloud on the left-hand side, retouching to edges, and further spot retouching throughout.
