拍品的状况可能存在极大差异,而由于其性质使然,拍品难以处于完美无瑕的状态。拍品均以拍卖时的状况出售。
This sculpture is in generally good overall condition with minor losses and repairs to the extremities. Notably the quill has been repaired and recoloured. This model, with raised pins, presumably for the purpose of forming moulds for the creation of further versions, perhaps in bronze, would likely have been used in a foundry or similar and would not have been intended for decorative use. It has been later coloured to simulate terracotta.
