Condition
Canvas is unlined. Surface bears a rich, textured impasto, although it is slightly dirty. Under UV light one pindot of inpainting appears just above the bottom edge at center and there is possibly one further pindot of inpainting at lower left corner and a hairline retouch in the sky to the left of the leftmost portion of the tree, otherwise fine. This work is in very good condition.
