拍品的狀況可能存在極大差異,而由於其性質使然,拍品難以處於完美無瑕的狀態。拍品均以拍賣時的狀況出售。
This three-piece panel is held under tension by wooden batons on the reverse, with a long vertical baton across the right panel join, butterfly inserts along the upper left panel join, a shorter vertical baton along the lower left join, and a further baton along the left quadrant. In raking light, the vertical crack of approximately 20 cm along the left quadrant is visible, with associated paint losses, along with another crack in the bottom quadrant, in the lower left corner of approximately 6 cm, also stabilised by the baton on the reverse. Restoration along the panel joins is visible with some associated paint losses. There are further damages in the upper right, resulting in paint losses that have previously been restored. Ultraviolet examination confirms the above and reveals a thick layer of old obscuring varnish, through which can be seen historic restoration in parts of the Virgin’s dress, with some restoration along the edges of the panel associated with frame wear.
