Condition Report:
The bronze is good condition overall, with surface dirt in the crevices. Wear and scratches to the nuanced green patina in several places, consistent with age and handling, in particular to the mother’s proper left forearm and hand, upper back and neck. Some minor oxidation stains to the bronze in several places.
