Condition
This work is in good condition overall. The work is stable and secure. There are scattered hairline surface cracks in the figure's skin, most noticeably at the right edge of the figure's nose and at the back right shoulder. The wig is well intact. The dark blemishes and surface texture are inherent to the artist's working method. There are a few scattered pinpoint surface accretions on the body. Under Ultraviolet light inspection there is evidence of restoration throughout the figure's face and at the lower neck circumference of the figure.
