Please note, the medium is oil on canvas laid to board, not oil on canvasboard as previously listed. The work shows scattered craquelure and extensive inpainting in most of the sky, with some reinforcement of shadows and contours in the foreground. There are also a few strokes of inpainting to address pigment losses. The piece would benefit from cleaning.
