Supporto e superficie in buone condizioni. Piccolo strappo della tela (1.7 cm) in corrispondenza del centro del margine superiore esterno verso sinistra. Minimo strappo della carta a metà del margine sinistro. Leggere tracce di sporco superficiale. Esaminata alla luce ultravioletta non presenta tracce evidenti di restauri o ritocchi. Tenuto conto di quanto sopra, è nostra opinione che l’opera sia in condizioni di conservazione molto buone.
