The canvas does not appear to have been lined. Areas of fine craquelure are present but the surface appears to be stable overall. Some superficial scuffs and abrasions, most notably to the edges. Inspection under UV reveals some scattered retouching, including some larger areas along the upper and right edges and to the lower left quadrant. There are further smaller retouches to the buildings, figures and scattered across the foreground. The image presents light surface dirt, occasional dotted brown stains and an uneven varnish.
