Bonzi with attribution to Giovanni Andrea De Ferrari Private Collection, Genoa The work is in fair conservative/aesthetic condition. Rintelato. The work has a very thick layer of varnish that partially hinders Wood's lamp investigation. The red sleeve of the Virgin's dress and St. John's fur show a more worn pictorial matter than the other parts of the work. Wood's lamp observation reveals the presence of some repainting on the background landscape. In order.
