Condition
The panel is sound. Examination under UV light reveals no evidence of retouching. There are a few dots of paint losses in places, notably in the central black shape. There are some thin lines of stable craquelure throughout the composition, most predominately in the lower left quadrant. The work is in overall very good condition.
