The panel has warped which, in turn has affected the board. The attached between the supports is failing in some areas.  The paint layer is stable and secure. There are drying cracks present which have formed during the drying of the paint layers, these are mainly located around the edges of the painting. The painting has a very thick, yellowed varnish layer which is glossy. Beneath the varnish there are old areas of discoloured overpaint.
