Condition

Structurally sound, there are some very light traces of surface dirt to the sculpture, with a couple of instances of minor, light oxidisation visible to the base of the work upon close inspection. There is a slight variation to the patina of the spear, around the hand, but this does not appear to be restoration, and is rather most probably in keeping with the nature of the artist's techniques and materials. The work appears in excellent overall condition. Please contact the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
