Condition
Carved oak. The structure is sound. There are various natural cracks and small holes in places which are inherent to the medium. There is a relatively loose splinter of wood to the upper part of the base, beneath the proper right foot of the model. Some light handling wear and small nicks to the surface which are consistent with age. This work is in good overall condition.
