Condition

This work is in good condition overall. Minor chip of patinated bronze observed on the tip of the middle finger of the outreached arm. Clay core partially revealed on the underside of the outreached arm due to uneven distribution of bronze which is intrinsic to artist's chosen method of execution. Minor signs of patina wear are observed, primarily around the head and on the hand at the back and the base of the sculpture.
