Condition

The panel is flat and even and ensuring a stable support. Under ultraviolet light, the old varnish fluoresces opaquely, preventing a clear reading of the surface, however there does not appear to be any notable retouching to the naked eye. This painting is in good original condition. Held in a gilt Rococco style frame
