The artisan skillfully breathed life into the marble, capturing the features of the subject’s face with mastery, from the detailed wrinkles to the serene, contemplative expression. Every line and curve is crafted with precision, reflecting the artistic excellence of the era.
The bust boasts incredible details, from the folds of the garment to the curls of the hair, enhanced by natural light on the polished marble surface. The choice of white marble, with its delicate veining, gives the work timeless elegance. This piece is not just a sculpture but a tangible representation of classical beauty, capable of evoking emotions and admiration.
