Condition
Attractive green mottled patina. There are two areas of abrasion to the medium, one to the proper left knee and one to the top of the proper left bust and a few further minor scuffs. There are some naturally-occuring inclusions, most prominently to the proper lower left leg of the figure. There is some rubbing to the patina consistent with age and handling. Otherwise this work is in good condition.
