Olio su tela, l'opera non è rintelata. Segni della battuta del telaio lungo i margini orizzontali, con associate leggere craquelure lineari, principalmente visibili a luce radente. Altre craquelure filiformi in corrispondenza delle foglie dell'albero. Abrasioni superficiali con associate piccole cadute di colore in corrispondenza delle estremità dei margini. Altre piccole cadute di colore nell'area destra della composizione. Esaminata alla luce ultravioletta, sono visibili due piccolissimi punti di restauro nel cielo e alcuni ritocchi minori in corrispondenza di alcune delle abrasioni superficiali sopracitate lungo le estremità dei margini. Tenuto conto di quanto sopra, è nostra opinione che l'opera sia in condizioni di conservazione molto buone.
Oil on canvas, not lined. Horizontal stretcher bar marks, with associated fine lines of cracks, mainly visible in raking light. Further hairline cracks in the tree leaves. Frame abrasions with a few tiny associated paint losses at the extreme edges. Some further small unobtrusive paint losses in places in the right half of the composition. When examined under ultraviolet light there is evidence of two tiny spots of inpainting in the sky, and some fine lines of cosmetic retouching to the aforementioned frame abrasions in places at the extreme edges. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally very good condition.
