Condition

This work on panel is in very good condition. The panel is flat. There are no cracks or paint losses. The surface is quite dirty and should respond well to cleaning. Some areas of the surface are dull and it is these areas which have received a very slight glaze from a restorer, probably to diminish some fine separation cracks to the paint layer. These are visible not only in the sky but in the pavement and in a couple of areas to the white wall in the center right.
