Condition
The board is sound. The colors are bright and fresh. Under UV light: some strokes of inpainting are apparent toward the outer areas of the sky, particularly along the top and right edges. No other retouches are immediately visible though a pooling layer of varnish is difficult to read through. Overall the work is in very good condition.
