Condition
Board is sound and its corners are rounded with a few minor losses. There are tiny pigment losses at the bottom left and bottom right corners. A tiny surface scuff is visible at the upper left corner. Surface is somewhat dirty. Under UV light: there are a few possible areas of retouching in the darkest pigments, perhaps in the rightmost figure's torso and below her right arm. Overall the work is in good condition.
