Condition Report

The original copy of the El Shaer Certificate will not be available to the purchaser, because it corresponds to three different lots within this auction, each probably going to different purchasers. The head was broken off when the statue was consigned, and has recently been repaired with minimal restoration. Otherwise intact as preserved; encrustation and areas of uneven patination throughout. Additional photos available.

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 Hindman 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 Hindman 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 Hindman.
