Lot 6

This work is in overall good condition. There are two breakages to take note off, the horses left leg appears to be broken previously and the tips of the two ears have been re-glued on. The glue has slightly yellowed around the ears, indicating that this has been done some time ago.
There is some sticky residue to the neck of the horse. This work is unframed with some scuffs and marks to the edges.
