Overall the condition of the marble is very good, with minor dirt and wear to the surface consistent with age. There are reattachments to two of the fingers of the male figure's outstretched hand. The wood flute is a modern replacement. There are a few small naturally occurring inclusions to the marble (some with fill), notably at the male figure's back and his proper right hip and leg and the woman's proper left thigh. Some light dirt marks, including reddish marks to the terrasse on the right side.
