Condition

07.09.2026- In my opinion regarding LOT: 3190- please note that I am not an expert on such sculpture, the figure is overall intact retaining a textured and tonal ground and patina as it was created, a UV light examination reveals no evidence of restoration to figure or base, the base does exhibit veining and/or stable hairline that may have been reinforced at time of manufacture, however these areas do not react to UV light, overall the work is in good condition, rotating smoothly on the accompanying base, both base and figure are signed by the artist
