Technical Observations: The patina is dark green with spots of red. The surface is very rough from expanded corrosion products, and no detail is visible. Very little cleaning other than the removal of burial accretions appears to have ever been attempted. There are old cracks at the backs of both ankles, but the bronze is stable. There is a residue of lead from a mount at the buttocks. The statuette is a solid cast from a model formed directly in wax.
