Condition

The medium is oil on canvas. The canvas is not lined. The work is in good overall condition. The canvas is slightly slack on the stretcher. There is some minor frame rubbing throughout. There is a 2 in. square plastic patch on the reverse, and associate inpainting in the left center, next to the little house peeking through the trees. Also under UV are several small (dime size or smaller) spots of inpainting, mostly in the sky. The colors are strong and clear and the work presents very well. The gilt frame has some nicks in it.
