Condition
The panel is sound. There is a milky varnish preventing UV light from fully penetrating, however there appears to be no evidence of retouching. There is some slight frame rubbing along the extreme edges predominately towards the lower part of the right edge and the centre of the left edge. There is some dirt ingrained in the varnish notably visible in the upper right quadrant. This work is in overall very good condition and could benefit from a light clean.
