The resin-lined canvas in overall good to very good condition. With minor paint flakes in the landscape at upper center left and upper left quadrant. Examination under UV light reveals remnants of varnish throughout (inconsistently shining, which reveals a clean) with a series of minor pinpoint dots of inpainting in the upper right quadrant/corner of the canvas (in the sky, corresponding to old flakes likely). Additional images available upon request.
