Condition

The panel is sound and there appear to be no signs of retouching visible under UV light. Apart from a pinhead-sized spot of paint loss near the lower right edge and an uneven varnish, this work is in very good condition. Conditions: Fairly accurate, although the greens are overall more vibrant and richer in the original.
