Condition
The panel is sound. UV examination reveals scattered retouchings along the edges, predominantly the left and upper edges, probably due to frame rubbing. There are two fine splits to the panel at the left edge, the longest of which is approximately 6cm. long. There are tiny fly spots in places. This work is in overall fairly good condition.
