Condition
The board is stable. UV examination reveals some scattered tiny spots of retouching, mostly in the sky and to the right of the cathedral. There is some minor frame abrasion, notably in the upper and lower right corners, which is not visible when framed. A close inspection reveals an artist's pinhole in the centre of the upper edge and some minor shrinkage in the thickest pigment of the sky, towards the centre of the upper edge. Otherwise, this work is in overall good condition.
