Condition
This work is in good condition overall. The resin has yellowed some with age. There is some light surface soiling evident. There are some faint scratches and small nicks and chips to the resin, particularly in the lower left at the back, the underside at the center, and at the upper center back edge. There are some inherent irregularities to the edges, surface and internally in the resin, due to the artist's working method and choice of medium. The work is accompanied by a silver base.
