There is also some light surface dirt, notably to the terrasse, and a few marks to the proper right arm. There is some minor veining to the marble, consistent with the material, including below the proper right breast and at the proper right hip. There are a few minor chips, including to the leaves and to the bottom edge of the veined marble base.
