Executed on panel. Inspection under UV light reveals a couple of instances of retouching, the most noticeable of which can be found along the left of the upper edge and in a small spot in the middle of the sky. The work has a milky varnish. There is frame rubbing along all four edges. There are a couple of minute losses throughout the composition, mostly found in the lower register. There are small spots of accretion scattered throughout. There is surface dust and dirt. The work is in overall good condition.
