Condition
Colour: The overall tonality is darker and more matt in the original.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is some oxidisation to the hydrant and an area of discolouration to the base which also appears to be caused by oxidisation. There are some further media accretions in isolated places, as well as some surface irregularities which appear to be original.
