Annette Ratuszniak (ed.), Elisabeth Frink, Catalogue Raisonné of Sculpture 1947-93, Lund Humphries in association with the Frink Estate and Beaux Arts, London, cat. no.FCR70, illustrated p.68 (another cast).

There is a thin, old crack to the figure's left leg, with some associated oxidisation, but otherwise the sculpture appears sound. There are one or two further tiny traces of oxidisation in places. There is some extremely minor rubbing to some of the protruding edges in places. There is some light surface dirt across the work, particularly in the pitted areas. Subject to the above, the work appears to be in very good overall condition. The sculpture is freestanding. Please telephone the department on +44 (0) 207 293 6424 if you have any questions regarding the present work.
