Condition
Overall the condition of the group is good with minor dirt and wear to the surface consistent with age. None of the polychromy survives. There is some splitting to the wood consistent with the material. Christ's hands are lost and there may be some losses to the grapes. One of the corners of the book and the proper left thumb is lost. There are some smaller losses to the drapery at the bottom. The section of the drapery on St. Anne's proper left side is carved separately.
