There are retouches near the top left-hand corner (cm 5x5 circa), others over the second row of arches, spots over the sky next to the dome and around the right hand side mainmast and a retouch over the hose' roof on the right. Some retouches are visible over the ship, under the jetty end over the greenery lower left-hand side. The overall condition as to the state of preservation is good.
