Condition

The panel is sound. UV examination reveals no evident sign of retouching. There are some very small paint losses along the left edge and a paint loss at the centre lower left. There is a minor dent towards the lower right, 8cm left of the signature. There are some very tiny stable holes in the panel (due to old woodworms) scattered along the right and upper edge away from the composition. Otherwise, this work is in overall good condition.
