Condition

The bronze is sound with a light brown patina with golden nuances. There is a light build up of surface dirt and some minor verdigris visible in the most recessive areas. Some light wear and fine surface scratches to the patina throughout, consistent with age and handling. There is a small nick to the child's proper left shoulder and lower left leg. Some studio stains in places. This work is in overall good condition.
