Condition
The panel is sound. There is a layer of milky varnish, preventing UV light from fully penetrating. However, UV examination reveals a spot of retouching to the centre of the upper edge, associated to a minor abrasion and two further, smaller retouchings to the lower edge. There is some light wear to the extreme edges. This work is in overall good condition.
