Glazed. Original canvas. Relatively light surface dirt and discoloured varnish. An amount of probable fine and slightly discoloured retouching across the glimpse of the sea, which is mostly visible by eye. Otherwise there is little to discern by way of restoration or intervention with a UV light, but does not entirely proclude some further minor retouches. Otherwise in a broadly good, stable and presentable state of preservation.
