Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although they fail to fully convey the reflective nature of the mirror. Condition: The sculpture is in very good condition. Very close inspection reveals some light and unobtrusive surface scratches in places to the mirror. There are some media accretions in places, and some of the foliage has deposited on the glass. There is some light wear and media accretions in places to the base. The work on paper is unglazed, there are some rub marks in places and some scratches towards the lower left corner and a small impact to the lower right corner.
