Condition
The panel and the paint surface are in good condition, except for a small crack at lower right corner. The sky is painted thinnly; very dark varnish. Under UV light: the thick, opaque varnish obscures any trace of inpainting; possible touch-ups may be seen at lower right corner. A small area around the initials has been cleaned.
