The surface is covered with a light layer of dirt. Inspection under UV light reveals an area of retouching to the lower left edge as well as a few scattered areas of retouching along the edges. Certain areas appear darker under UV but this appears to be inherent to the pigments used. Held in a modern frame. Unexamined out of frame.
