More Information

The figure shows some small losses to the darker patinated finish on the hair. The body patination shows some wear, oxidation and small scuffs throughout. The base fixing appears to be loose, allowing the figure to pivot on her right foot. This has resulted in some scratched to the oynx plinth, where her left toes have inscribed an arc approximately 4cm long. The plinth has three unrelated patches of discolouration in the area of this arc, with further small scuffs and small nibbles to the top edges and corners.
