Areas of green oxidation along the sides and top surface of the lower section of the sculpture. The figure has no green oxidation. The brown patina shifts in hue throughout the sculpture, but does not appear to be a result of wear, as it is not solely at the high points of the bronze.No nicks or scratches when examined.
