Condition

The ceramic is sound. There is some minor fine crazing to the glazed parts of the composition. There is some light rubbing to the pigment at the raised center of the goat's eye and some further light rubbing to the ear and back of the head. There is a hairline crack to the upper right part of the background, extending from the top of the goat's nose to the edge of the plate, approximately 5 inches long. This is thought to be a firing flaw and is considered to be intrinsic to the work at its creation. There are traces of kiln stilts to the reverse of the plate. Some minor rubbing to underside and some surface dirt. The work is largely in very good condition.
