Both paintings are executed in oil on copper panel supports. There are some minor deformations to the copper panels but overall they are in a good condition. The paint layers have suffered from small scattered losses, but overall they are stable and secure. The scene with the bridge has extensive overpaint which has slightly darkened in the sky. Both pictures have a thick varnish layer which is glossy, even and yellowed. There are some light scuffs to the surface and abrasion around the edges with some accretions including house paint.
