Condition
The panel is flat and cradled. There appears to be a vertical panel join about 1/3 in from the right margin. There are some slightly discoloured retouchings in places, such as the lower left corner, but all minor in nature. Some of the darker regions are perhaps a little abraded but in general the surface is quite well preserved. Sold with a gilt frame.
