. General rubbing with some minor losses to all edges and corners. The right hand side edge, top corner and lower corner have notably more damages. There is also a gouge just above approx. centre, slightly on the diagonal and is approx 0.5cm in length revealing the canvas below (images can be supplied). There is relatively sporadic retouching mostly throughout the sky which appears to have discoloured and if effectively visible with the naked eye. There is a patch of more consistent retouching directly beneath the gouge and is approx. 0.5cm on the horizontal and around 1cm in the vertical. General surface dirt and discolouration. The paint is thinly applied particularly within the foreground with a few areas where the paper is more apparent still, such as lower right hand corner, lower edge approx 3cm from the corner and beneath the larger trees on the right hand side of the horizon.
