Condition
The sculpture is in good condition. It displays a thin dark brown patina that reveals warmer brown tones below. Tiny spots of patina loss were noted on the front PR leg and on top of the base. The patina appears rubbed slightly on the shoulders of the figure, the PR side of the horses head, on the right breast and on the back of her hair. The sculpture is structurally sound.
