Condition Report:
The panel is flat, even, and ensuring a stable support. It has been re-reinforced with two vertical batons along the left and right edges respectively.
The paint surface is clean and stable.
There is some minor hairline drying-craquelure in the background in the upper left corner; however, this is not visually distracting.
Inspection under ultra-violet light reveals areas of uneven varnish which are attributable to selective cleaning. With the exception of some minor lines of cosmetic retouching in the background, there is no other sign of restoration.
This work is in good condition and is ready to hang.
Presented in a decorative gilt frame with a nameplate.
