The panel is comprised of a single board with a horizontal grain. There is evidence of beveling along all four edges of the reverse. The panel is in stable condition. The paint layer is clean under a clear varnish with a pleasing sheen. The impastos in the sea have been nicely maintained. Restoration to close the wood grain are visible in natural light and fluoresce under ultraviolet light. Inspection under UV light also reveals feathered retouches scattered in the sea. The painting presents well and is offered in a Dutch style painted wood frame.
