Additional Notes & Condition Report
Bust: appears to be in generally good condition; typical wear/rubbing and dulling to patina; the patina is a nice dark green/chocolate brown color; signed on the left shoulder in script A. Falguière; further signed on the rear side with the foundry name
Mable Base (Socle): there is a somewhat large-size chip loss to one of the rear corners; the chip loss does not at all effect the stability of the sculpture; there are a few other scattered small chips and nicks to the rim edges, corners, etc., not of any great consequence
