The panel is flat, even and ensuring a stable support. There is a minor horizontal old restored crack circa 2cm at the left edge in the sky. Ultra-violet light reveals some strokes of retouching in the aforementioned crack, and a few small spots in the top right edge. The picture is otherwise in good condition and ready to hang.
