Condition

The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration although the overall tonality is redless in the original. The work is in very good condition. A few discolored areas of the rust patina are visible on the other side of the sculpture, possibly inherent to the artist's working process. A few minor rub marks are visible upon close inspection.
