Overall good condition with minor scuffs and darkening/oxidation to bronze commensurate with age. The gilt surface has heavy wear and patina with many losses. As well, the figure's ears and the spire of his crown are both broken off. Lastly, there is some corrosion to the feet of the figure with one small hole present on the right foot. Please note: The mount for the display stand has been adhered to the verso and cannot be removed. Condition reports are offered as a courtesy and are typically published in Moran's catalogue or can be made available upon request. The absence of a condition report does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. Buyers are responsible for determining to their own satisfaction the true nature and condition of any lot prior to bidding. Though buyers are not legally required to inspect lots prior to purchase, failure to do so may constitute a waiver of complaint that an item was not delivered in a condition equal to the existent condition at the auction.
