This single piece panel has very slightly warped. There is evidence of some tenting in the paint surface, largely in the upper left quadrant of the composition. This should be stabilised to avoid potential future paint losses. Some discoloured retouching is visible to the naked eye in the upper left section of the background. Examination under ultra violet light is partly obscured by the old varnish layers but does reveal two historic schemes of strengthening to some of the darker tones. The wooden frame has some losses to the gilding.
