Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. All elements are secure and intact. There are surface accretions of dust and cobwebs throughout the crevices of the sculpture and particularly visible at the top of the plant components. Additionally, there is evidence of minor white surface accretions on the flat top of the wooden base, likely inherent to the artist's working method.
