Condition

The canvas is not lined. Under ultra-violet light, there is a 1x4cm area of retouching in the lower left quadrant, which corresponds to a repaired tear in the canvas. There are also small spots that lightly fluoresce in the sky near the right edge, which may correspond to old retouchings. This work is good, stable condition.
