Condition
This work is in very good condition overall. A few very faint scattered brown surface scratches are present on the top of the head, the nose and chin, the hands, the bottoms of the feet, and the proper left thigh of the figure. Under ultraviolet light inspection, a diagonal line of repair to the base becomes apparent above the signature; this restoration does not interfere with the integrity of the sculpture.
