Condition

Overall excellent original condition. This unique sculpture with impressive scale when viewed in person. Each individual wooden element has been affixed by hand, and when viewed in person work displays great detail. For the purposes of shipment and installation, the sculpture is comprised of two elements. The lower 1/2 of the overall work serves as the base on which the top portion is placed. One of the affixed wooden elements to the immediate edge of the sculpture has split, and with a minor two inch loss. A highly artistic and dynamic example of the CampanasÂ’ sculptural works showing superb scale.
