Condition Report:
The following condition report was kindly provided by Simon Parkes Art Conservation, Inc.: Not examined out of the frame. This work has been lined with a non-wax adhesive. The paint layer is clean and varnished. No restorations are clearly visible under ultraviolet light, except for a handful of isolated spots in the lower left corner. In the sky, there is a very lightly applied glaze that reads slightly darker under ultraviolet light, but this appears to have been applied by the artist himself, since some of the branches of the trees are painted on top of it. The work should be hung as is.

"This lot is offered for sale subject to Sotheby's Conditions of Business, which are available on request and printed in Sotheby's sale catalogues. The independent reports contained in this document are provided for prospective bidders' information only and without warranty by Sotheby's or the Seller."
