Condition
The panel is sound and UV examination reveals no signs of retouching. The work is executed on a primed panel and there is some pale fluorescence where the ground is exposed. There is some minor abrasion to the extreme right edge and some light surface scratches to the varnish, only visible in a raked light. This work is in overall good condition.
