Condition
The panel is flat, even and ensuring a stable support. There is some very minor rubbing along the edges, mostly covered by the frame, and apart from some areas of uneven fluorescence which are probably due to old residual varnish, ultra-violet light reveals no notable signs of retouching. The work is in very good condition and ready to hang.
