Note: Condition Review

PL rear foot is missing. Overall the gold layer is delaminating along break edges and is entirely worn from the rump, eyes, nose and knees. The interior surface is intact. The exterior show black carbon like corrosion where gold layer is missing. Green corrosion in localized areas overall, but concentrated on the lower rump, the tips of the spatulated foot, between the eyes and interstices of headdress decorative element. Two large holes, that appear to be casting flaws are visible in the rump and below the proper right eye. Fine layer of clay-like material deposited on the interior surface inside the casting flaw on the rump.

Note: Housing Notes

Rebagged in polyethylene ziplock bag with Tyvek tag insert. A ring was formed of volara secured with hot melt glue and placed in the bag surrounding the object as protection.
