The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

The painting has been executed on a panel support made up of two boards horizontally joined. The panel has been thinned and cradeled to the reverse. The mark of the hands of the Guild of Saint Luke has been reattached to the reverse following the thinning process (lower left). The support remains stable. The painting presents well in natural light. In raking light the central panel join can be seen. At lower right there is a small area of tenting to the paint that would benefit from stabilisation. There appears to be some further areas of retouching associated with the cradeling of the panel, notably to the upper and lower edges. Examination under UV light confirms the aforemetioned restorations. There is a further horizontal line of restoration to the panel in the lower third of the panel. There has been some retouching to the brown tones of the ground. There appears to be further retouching to the sky and foliage, though the thick cloudy varnish precludes a more in depth examination. The paint remains stable. The illustrative quality of the composition and the vivacity of colour remain fully appreciable.
