Condition
Excellent. The painting was recently cleaned and was lined onto linen with ethyl vinyl acetate to address stress cracking in the sky. The restorer’s report notes minor in-paint to any remaining stress cracks post-lining, but we did not see any obvious in-paint under UV. If there is any in-paint, it is very minor.
