Condition
The panel is uncradled and stable. The picture has recently been cleaned and restored and is in very good overall condition. Ultra violet light reveals only scattered local retouchings throughout, mostly in the sky. The varnish is clear and even and the painting does not require further attention.
Offered with a stained wood frame with ripple mouldings. The sight edge has been damaged on the left hand side.
