This bronze is in very good condition overall with minor wear to the patina, particularly to the high points, and surface dirt, particularly in the crevices, consistent with age and handling. There is some minor greening at several places. This group was cast in various elements assembled with joints and plugs visible at several places. Minor casting flaws are visible at several places. Very decorative group, precise in all details.
