Condition

Bon état général. Légère usure de la patine, majoritairement sur le socle. Infimes rayures d'usage sur l'ensemble de la surface, quelques rares et très légers enfoncements d'usage dont un plus marqué sur le genou avant gauche du cheval. Un léger décollement dans les coins entre le socle de la statue et le piédestal. La flèche a été remplacée, d'après l'originale. Good overall condition Some light wear to the patina, mostly on the tall pedestal base. A few minor scratches of use scattered over the surface and a few tiny dents, one more important on the horse's left front knee, all consistent with normal age and use. There is a slight gap on the corners between the sculpture base and the pedestal. The arrow has been recast after the original one.
