Condition
The work is in good condition overall. All discrete units are intact. There are minor surface scratches throughout, as well as some isolated areas of oxidation and accretion. The varied surfaces and facets of the work are differently textured, which is due to the artist's working method. The work shows some accumulation of soiling in its deepest crevices. There are a few minor scuffs and some rubbing along some edges of the work.
