Condition

The canvas is not lined and there do not appear to be any signs of retouching visible under UV light. There is an artist's pinhole to all four corners, some fine lines of craquelure in places and some minor paint shrinkage to the upper left corner and parts of the green boat. The canvas is slightly undulating in places. There is some light surface dirt in places and this work would benefit from a light clean. Otherwise this work is in overall good original condition. Colours: Overall pinker and brighter compared to the printed catalogue.
