Condition

The panel is sound. The surface is richly textured. Some minor old frame abrasion with associated spots of paint loss in places. There are two fine surface scratches approximately 2 cm long running vertically from the lower edge just to the left of centre. Examination under UV light reveals two tiny spots of retouching to the upper left edge. This work is in overall very good condition.
