Condition Report:
This work is in very good and sound condition overall. All elements are secure and intact. There is evidence of light wear and handling to the edges and corners, including minor areas of separation at the joints of the wooden box construction. As expected with a sculpture of this construction, a light layer of dust has settled on the surface.
