Condition
The terracotta is sound. Examination under UV light reveals a small spot of fluorescence possibly pertaining to old restoration on the proper left cheek of the figure's posterior.There are some light handling marks in places consistent with age and the surface could benefit from a light clean. This work is in overall good condition.
