Condition
The colours are fairly accurate in the catalogue illustration.
The surface of the work is uneven, inherent to the work and material used by the artist. There are two very small hairline cracks (1.5 cm each) located on the front of the sculpture, on the white lower segment and on the black outline on the upper half. The two sides also present one hairline crack each, on along the edge of the work, and the other horizontal, located at the center. The three horizontal rims present some very light accretions.
This work is in very good condition.
