拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

THIS CONDITION REPORT HAS BEEN PREPARED BY HAMISH DEWAR FINE ART CONSERVATION,
IN THE CHRISTIE'S WAREHOUSE FOR THE PURPOSE OF THIS SALE.

Structural Condition
The canvas has been lined and this is ensuring a secure structural support. The lined canvas is
attached to a new keyed wooden stretcher. There are some very slight crease marks
particularly in the lower right corner, within the dark pigments, which are entirely stable and
really only visible in a strong raking light.

Paint Surface
The paint surface has an even varnish layer.
Inspection under ultraviolet light shows small scattered retouchings in the sky with larger
retouchings just above the rooftop and between the branches in the tree on the far right of the
composition. There is also an area of retouching within the green pigments in the lower right
corner. Some small surface deposits are highlighted under ultraviolet light in the lower left
quadrant which could be easily removed.

Summary
The painting would therefore appear to be in good and stable condition.
