The panel is made of a single oak plank, and is providing a stable, secure support for the picture. There is an even varnish and a fine pattern of craquelure to the paint surface, and there are a few tiny scuffs to the edges, possibly consistent with frame wear. The examination under UV reveals some scattered retouching to the sky and some strengthening to the water and figures in the foreground. Overall the picture presents well.
