Condition

To the naked eye: The painting is in relatively good condition. It is painted on a reinforced and perfectly flat copper. The painting has been cleaned on the 2nd half of the 20th century, a little bit too strong that has worn a bit some figures. The painting is a little bit dirty. We notice a 6 cm. vertical restoration crossing the foliage of the central tree. Under UV light : We notice a green uniform varnish. We notice some small restoration spots on the sky and the vertical restoration already mentioned.
