Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. There are scattered spots of blue accretions across the figure's brain. Light dust throughout the sculpture. A very minor surface irregularity near the figure's right shoulder and few faint surface scratches and light accretions on the feet and hands, only visible under very close examination, consistent with the artist's choice of medium and working method.
