拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

The canvas has been lined and is on what is most probably the original stretcher which is providing good support.
There is some fine craquelure and some areas of surface dirt. The varnish in the sea appears a little cloudy. The picture might benefit from a light clean.

Under UV light there is a layer of uneven varinsh to the sea which renders reading the canvas difficult, however there appear to be one or two minor spots of retouching in the sea and sky. The picture appears to have been partially cleaned.

The picture is present in a 20th century swept frame.
