Condition Report

Large areas of retouch to the sky, the major spot measuring 6 3/4 x 3 inches and located above the vessels just left of center. The retouch to the sky presents as a different texture and paint quality to the naked eye. Hairline crack to panel surface noticeable at the upper right side, 3 inches down from the top. The crack probably extends all the way across the panel, but much of it is filled by retouch. The visible part of the crack is just under four inches across. There is scattered fine retouch to the ships.
