Condition

In overall good condition. The panel is formed of a single plank, which is uncradled, flat and stable. The paint surface is relatively clean and the varnish is slightly discoloured. Some of the more thinly-painted, lighter pigments have faded slightly. Inspection under ultraviolet light reveals very little retouching, save for small areas scattered along each margin and a small spot in the stem of the glass, upper left.
