Lot 24

Previous restorative work is visible under close inspection- appearing matured, with no signs of loose fragments or shards on the surface of the work or in dust form. This repair presents in a hairline crack running horizontally down the work from right to left. The fracture is more obvious to the naked eye from the verso- approximately 30cm in length. Despite this, the work is structurally stable and no visual aesthetics have been lost from the front.
