Condition

Colour: The colours in the catalogue illustration are fairly accurate, although the marble tends more towards a soft grey in the original. Condition: This work is in very good condition. There is some light surface dirt and a few isolated unobtrusive handling marks scattered throughout. There are two small rub marks to the base of the right hand marble section (according to the catalogue illustration). A very small pale media accretion is visible on close inspection to the reverse of the top of the far right vertical marble section (according to the catalogue illustration). There are a few inherent imperfections to the marble in some isolated places to the sculpture.
