This work is in very good and sound condition overall. Under very close inspection and under raking light, there are two minute scratches, one to the lower front of the figure's nightgown, and one next to the right eye of the figure, as well as minute superficial and unobtrusive scratched to the back of the figures head, are visible. A very faint superficial layer of dust has adhered to the crevices of the work.
