Condition
The panel consists of a single board with all four edges beveled, that is stabilized with a horizontal crossmember on the reverse. A decorative image reads well. There is a minor horizontal thin scratch. that is barely visible at center right which runs for about 4in. Some discolored retouches are visible on the houses, like the one at far right. These retouches fluoresce under UV, along with other areas of retouches scattered throughout the sky. Further reading is impeded due to the dirty varnish. Offered in a painted wood frame with some minor dents.
