Thin lines of stable cracking are visible most notably to the white clouds at upper right, where trace amounts of pigment may have been lost. The surface is a bit dirty. Under UV light: there is an area of inpainting one inch by one inch in the upper right sky. Otherwise fine. The work is in overall very good condition.
