. In an overall good and stable state of preservation. Covered in a layer of dirt and discoloured varnish. The grain of the panel is mildly apparent. Fine stable craquelure throughout. There has been a essentially minor phase of delicate retouching to old craquelure along upper edge, mostly contained to left hand side and corner, within the sky more consistently to left hand side, left hand side edge lower corner and to a lesser degree within the caravan and horses, general landscape lower edge etc... Odd very minor surface scratch/abrasion.
