Canvas appears lined and the paint surface appears in generally good order. UV examination reveals some areas of flare, possibly retouching to the left edge around tree and buildings and to right edge around boats and buildings. It appears however to be a particular grey pigment that is fluorescing. Further UV examination reveals minor scattered areas of retouching
