Condition report: Frame: 32 x 24 3/4 x 1 1/2 in. Framed under glass. In overall very good condition. The sheet is laid down to a piece of board, and cannot be lifted at any edges. It appears to have been cleaned. With some smudges at upper left and upper right, and along the outer edges in general. We notice a small pinpoint hole at upper left corner. With minuscule crevices in the sky at upper center (some of which appear to have been filled, at upper center right). With scattered drops of exedents of gouache (see at upper left along the edge and at upper right). The main restoration can be seen at upper left corner and center right, along the edge: two thinly repaired tears (the former, about 1 1/2 in. long, the latter about 5 in. long). Both are barely noticeable and run along the ink-drawn margins of the work. See Specialist's pictures for more details.
