Condition
Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate although the overall tonality is lighter with more pronounced bronze specks shining through the patina in the original.
Condition: This work is in very good condition. The patina has worn thin in places revealing traces of the bronze beneath. There are several tiny surface irregularites throughout which would appear to be inherent to the work's execution.
