PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS CONDITION REPORT WAS PREPARED BY HAMISH DEWAR, AN INDEPENDENT PAINTINGS CONSERVATOR
UNCONDITIONAL AND WITHOUT PREJUDICE


Structural Condition
The artist's panel is uncradled with an even profile and is structurally sound and secure.
Paint Surface
The paint surface has a rather discoloured varnish layer and should benefit considerably from cleaning and revarnishing. There are a number of small scattered retouchings which have also discoloured and could be removed during the cleaning process. There are a number of these small retouchings in the upper left and upper right of the sky and also in the lower right corner, many of which appear to fill areas where the artist has intentionally allowed the ground layers to be visible and I am confident that these retouchings could be considerably reduced should they be removed during the cleaning process and replaced where found to be necessary.
There may be further retouchings that I could not identify under ultraviolet light. Inspection under ultraviolet light also shows the varnish layers to be quite discoloured.
Summary
The painting would therefore appear to be in good and stable condition and should benefit considerably from cleaning, restoration and revarnishing. I would be confident of a significant improvement in the overall appearance.
