Condition
This work is in good and sound condition overall. The head rotates freely on its base. There are scattered light surface abrasions to the head and the patina has faded slightly at the figure's nose and along her hairline. There are areas of scattered abraisons on the base resulting in loss to the patina, most significantly along the left side edge.
