Condition

The work is made up of a single piece of wood which is stable with no cracks or damages. Examination under ultraviolet light reveals an extensive passage of retouching in the sky. This appears to have been largely cosmetic. There are some minor touches of repaint along the lower horizontal edge. There is some light surface abrasion in the sky. This would be easily remedied. Held in a gilt moulded frame.
