catalogue 598 Frame: grooved, with mortise and tenon joints, mixed cut at front and cut square at back, pegged. Holes cut into the bottom of the lower rail indicate that the painting was intended to be placed on a solid surface. A non-original but early fitting covers hanging/holding holes. The red polychromy is original, as is the inscription on the lower rail. The gilding has been redone.
