Cleaned and re-varnished. Some surface dirt and discoloured varnish now in evidence. The panel is cradled to the rear and is generally flat in character. There is relatively consistent re-touching of a horizontal nature presumably following the natural grain of the wood and where old paint has flaked off. This a generally of a linear quality but there a couple of slightly larger patches just above centre. Much of this re-touching is slightly discoloured against other paint and is mildly visible with the naked eye. The foreground and lower landscape remains less affected and is apparently intact.
