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。

Overall in good condition. The marble with natural inclusions. With some minor surface wear, small scattered nicks and 'nibbles' to extreme edges, as to be expected. Her drapery with some very minor areas of infill, likely to natural inclusions, and along the edges, well concealed. With a small area of infill on the reverse where mirror would have rested, not readily visible. With restorations to her pinkie finger and thumb on her right hand. With a light build up of surface dirt and some very minor staining. Presents well overall. The model originally conceived with an oval mirror (as shown in 1904 exhibition image). Christie's Sculpture department is available to consult interested parties on fabrication of a mirror for this lot.
