There is fine surface cracking but the paint layer appears to be stable and in excellent original condition. There is a small circle of restoration (approx 7mm wide) in the very centre of the picture which may cover a very small repaired hole or area of paint lost. There are also some small scattered spots of restoration at the edges. It has a layer of old discoloured varnish which makes it difficult to read clearly under UV light and there may be some additional thin lines of of cosmetic retouching in the sky, but these are minor.
