Condition
The bronze is sound with a rich brown patina. Some light variations and wear to the patina, consistent with age and handling. There are a few surface scratches and nicks in places, notably a 'z-shaped' hairline scratch and four tiny vertical scratches to the main body of the sculpture. There are a few further small nicks and losses to the patina around the lower half of the sculpture and to the side of the base. This work is overall good condition.
