Denyse Durand-Ruel, Arman, Catalogue Raisonné III, Paris, 1994, p. 131, no. 276, illustrated

The colours are fairly accurate in the printed catalogue illustration. All elements seem stable. The overall sculpture is slightly dusty. The plastic base presents some imperfections certainly inherent to the medium. The wooden base presents few losses. This work is in good original condition.
