Provenance

Acquired directly from the artist

Condition

Overall very good condition with only minor rubbing. An elegant small example of the bush form. It appears that the piece is slightly bent, as visible in the catalogue illustration. With one small areas measuring less than two inches in diameter with minor bending to the branches, likely from impact. One smaller second possible area of bending. These do not detract from the overall appearance of the piece. This piece has a small marble base that was likely added later. The sculpture does not attach to the base.
