Condition

This work is in good condition. Some very thin craquelures appear upon close inspection mostly in the left had side of the sky. A line of thin craquelures also appear at 14 cm from the left edge in the lower part of the composition, which has been stabilized (visible under UV light). A few hairlines of scratches are aso visible in the plexiglas. A piece of cork has been added behind the stretcher to protect the canvas at 5 cm from the lower edge and 75 cm from the right. This caused a dent visible on the front of the work. The extremer lower corner of the plexiglas stick is missing and there is a tiny paintloss associated.
