Purchased at the above sale by the present owner

Condition

The panel is flat and even and ensuring a stable support. There are scattered spots of frame rubbing along the extreme edges. Ultraviolet light does not reveal any notable signs of retouching, although the varnish fluoresces opaquely and obscures a clear reading of the surface. This work is in good condition and its appearance could be further enhanced if desired with a light surface clean. Held in an elaborate gilt frame.
