Condition
Please Note: THE SWORD IS MISSING
there are scattered areas with wear and rubbing (losses) to the patina, perhaps most notably, to the figure's proper left thigh, knee and front leg area below the knee; there is blotchiness to the patina, most notably, to the figure's cape; the sword is now lost (missing); no apparent breaks, restoration, etc.; not black lighted
(Yes, I know I am repeating myself above but I want to make it clear the sword is now missing).
Also, I made a spelling correction in the Provenance box (in GoAuction) because the first occurrence of the name Butterfield was misspelled as shown below. Can you also make this update on Invaluable and Live Auctioneers?
