拍品的状况可能存在极大差异，而由于其性质使然，拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。

Overall good condition and ready to place. The putto sculpture, basin and interior basin separate. The surface of the sculpture with some dust, staining, abrasions and rusting throughout, all consistent with age and use outdoors. A small separation joint at the putto's left hand and drapery edge. The left side of the sculpture base with hinged door to access plumbing, dolphin mouth drilled as a spout. Both basins with rusting, most notably to the interior as well as debris throughout. Christie's recommends third party construction and installation.
