Condition
The panel is sound. Examination under UV light reveals one small spot of paint loss to the centre of the extreme upper edge with associated re-touching, and some further small specks of scattered re-touching to the sky. There is one small area of studio dirt close to the edge of the upper right corner, and there is a minor area of paint loss to the upper left corner. This work is in overall good condition.
