Unlined. There is a tear to the very left edge of the canvas, probably caused by being stretched over the support over time. There is a 2.5cm tear to the centre of the largest tree. Surface dirt thourghout. Craquelure is visible throughout, most noticeably in the sky. There is some lifting in the upper left corner, resulting in two small losses.
