Condition

The medium is bronze with dark brown patina. The work is in good overall condition aside from some rubbing to the sharp angles and protruding elements, and some verdigris predominantly on the front of the work. There is a small accretion at the center of the work, on the proper right pectoral of the viewer's righthand figure. The work presents well overall.
