Generally in good condition, with a few insect remains behind the glass. The St Sebastian has one white mark in the decorative border bottom right of the gilded inscription - see image. The image with demons has a slight bulge in the top half, and the one with the femal figure has a very slight undulation to the velum, and one very small indented line below the bottom edge.
