Condition
The canvas is lined. There is an L-shaped area of retouching in the upper right corner with associated specks of retouching towards the corner. There is a small area of retouching with associated pinhead spots of flaking in the upper left corner and there are very thin lines of retouching running intermittently along the extreme right and left edges, probably due to frame rubbing. Apart from two minor nailhead-sized areas of paint loss at the centre of the upper and right edges and some light craquelure, this work is in good condition.
Colours: Fairly accurate. The colours are more vibrant in the original, especially in the foliage area.
