In overall fair condition, with accumulated dust and grime in the interstices of the work. Light corrosion around the edges of the face, encrusted inside the sphere. The sphere itself presents signs of scratching around. With localized dents on the back of the sphere. Small crack (with associated see-through hole) on the inside of the base, in the red part. Slight scuffs and scratches on the inside of the shell, where the red paint is, as well as on the outer edges, where the sphere usually sits (natural consequence from staging). The paint applied on the head is slightly cracking. Additional images available upon request.
The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.
The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
