Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. There are scattered nicks and surface abrasions to the patina, particularly across the back of the sculpture where there is an abrasion approximately 4 inches long. The overall surface inconsistencies appear inherent to the artist's working method. The base also has abrasions and has losses to the black pigment in spots.
