Condition

This work on canvas is unlined. The paint layer is stable, clean and restored. Retouches have been added along the bottom edge to address a few losses; these do not interfere with the inscription in the lower right. There is also a spot of retouching in the tallest box on the left, a couple of spots in the upper left in the blue sky and a couple of spots in the lower center of the cloud. There are otherwise no retouches, and the painting should be hung as is. (This condition report has been provided courtesy of Simon Parkes Art Conservation, Inc.)
