Condition Report

Overall the condition of the wood is good, with some dirt and wear to the surface consistent with age. There are a few losses to the edges of the frame, mostly due to past worming; in particular to the left side and to the right side at the back. There is very minor stable splitting to the wood consistent with the material, notably to the bottom on the left side. The right side of the relief is carved separately, and the joint running through is slightly open but stable. There is some wax fill around the top of this joint. There is a minor loss to one of the soldiers' proper left arm around this joint. There is wear to the gilding and polychromy, including some very minor areas of loss, in particular at the high points, such as Christ's proper right hand and some of the noses. There is also minor craquelure, including to the skin tones. There is particular wear to the gilding of the hat of the soldier standing to the proper right of Christ, and the cloak of the soldier standing above Christ. The estofado has worn in areas such as the breastplate and skirt of the soldier to Christ's proper left side. There are several remnants of gold leaf where it has worn. It appears that the frame was once fully gilt and this has largely worn. There are two large modern metal mounts at the back to stabilise the relief. There are four further metal mounts at the corners at the back to facilitate hanging. There is some filling material, including what appears to be animal hair, at the back.
