Condition

This work is in very good condition. The panel is sound. The surface is nicely textured. There are some fine lines of stable craquelure intermittently throughout, particularly visible in the sky along the upper edge. Under UV light certain original pigments fluoresce. There may be one small stroke of inpainting near the lower left corner, along the left edge. Otherwise fine.
