Condition
The panel is sound. There are scattered specks and lines of retouching along all four edges, visible under UV light, probably due to frame rubbing. Apart from a scattered group of retouchings to the right of the woman's skirt, a 3cm. line of retouching to the centre of the left edge and a 3cm. line of retouching to the centre of the lower edge, all visible under UV light, this work is in fairly good condition.
