Condition
The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is warmer and tends to pink in the original.
Under the right armpit of the sculpture, a nick in the resin (approx. 5 cm) is visible upon close inspection, inherent to the artist's working process. On each of the two rumps and on the right shoulder blade, surface scratches are visible (less than 1 cm each).
The work is in very good condition.
