Condition

Patinated plaster. Attractive green patina. There are some small scuffs associated with minor patina losses along the edge of the base. There are three small restored patina losses to the upper part of the figure's proper right sleeve and a few tiny scattered flecks of patina losses to the most protuding elements. There is some minor wear to the patina to the edges and the most protruding elements and a light build-up of dust in the crevices. This work is in overall very good condition.
