Condition
The panel is sound. There is a milky varnish preventing UV light from fully penetrating. Examination under UV light appears to reveal to small spots of retouching in the green pigment towards the centre of the lower edge and some fine lines of retouching along the extreme edges. There is a small dot of superficial dirt in the left part of the sky and some frame rubbing along the extreme edges. This work is in overall good condition and could benefit from a light cleaning.
