Condition
Bronze is sound with a matt black patina. Remnants of plaster are visable in the crevases throughout. There are spots of verdigris on the figures upper left arm and to the front and back of his upper right leg. There is a small horizontal white media mark across the lower back. Very minor wear to the angular edges of the figures torso and legs. This work is in good overall condition, but would certainly benifit from a light cleaning.
