Condition Report:
This work is very good and sound condition overall. All elements are present and stable. There are tonal and textural variations to the surface of the work, inherent to the artist's chosen media. There is a fine layer of surface dust present throughout, most notably in the crevices. There is faint surface cracking under the eyes and around the nose, visible upon close inspection.
