Condition
Please note that this work is inscribed with the date '24 juin 1950'. Apart from some general time-staining, notably to the white painted sections of the vase and the dancing female figure, as well as minor lines of scuffing and very superficial nicks to the surface of the clay, notably to the thigh of the man in a hand-stand, this work is in good condition.
