Condition
Executed on cradled panel, the panel is sound and the surface is clean. There is a faint vertical line of surface abrasion roughly two inches from the lower half of the right edge. Under UV light: strokes of inpainting at center of top edge, center of left edge, and towards the upper left corner, as well as a few scattered pin-dot retouches in the left half of the sky. There are also nail head sized retouches in the center of the composition as well as bottom edge near the lower left corner. Otherwise fine, this work is in good condition.
