Condition
The canvas is not lined. UV examination does not reveal any evidence of retouching. There is some paint shrinkage in places, mainly to the blue pigments, with some associated minor paint losses to the couple in the upper left corner and to the area just above the house. This work is in overall fairly good condition.
