The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
This bronze bust is in overall very good condition.
The patina with some greenish undertones.
The surface with some minor marks, scratches, and light rubbing to the high points, as to be expected with age and handling. The wear to the patina predominantly to the reverse of the figure's head.
Some residue to the underside of the locks of hair.
There are some very miniscule 'pits' to forehead and top of head, almost certainly in the casting.
The interior with small, localised traces of verdigris to the back right corner of the interior.
Ready to place.
