Condition Report:
The board is sound. The edges are cut in an uneven hexagon. One artist pinhole at the upper edge of the composition. The colors are bright and present nicely. Some hairline craquelure in the sky. Under UV light: several strokes of inpainting throughout the tree. One half-inch area of inpainting along the leftmost edge. A few additional spots of inpainting along the left side of the composition. A thick layer of varnish prevents a closer reading. This work is in overall good condition.
