Antologica Berrocal (1955-1984), Gallego, Opus 101, ppg. 249, 277-279, 445
This cast is from an edition of 2000 and consists of 16 elements and a brass base. A video illustrating the assembly of this work is available at following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwCiP_s4x78.
There is verdigris in the crevices and the brass is tarnished. Please note that the legs should fold upwards and tuck under the top element. This is not possible presently due to accumulation of verdigris residue in the joints. This can be cleaned and the full gloss of the material restored. Assembly and cleaning instructions are available upon request or on contacting the Fundación Escultor Berrocal.
The wood base is not integral to the work.
