Description

Carved marble portrait bust depicting a formally dressed gentleman with closely cropped hair, prominent moustache, and short beard. The subject is shown wearing a tailored jacket with lapels, waistcoat, and bow tie, executed with restrained realism and careful facial modelling. The shoulders are broadly carved, terminating above a shaped, integral socle base.
The marble exhibits a warm cream colouration with natural veining and areas of golden patina throughout, consistent with age and material. The surface retains a soft polish, with visible hand-finishing in recessed areas, particularly to the reverse. The initials C.D.
A dignified and well-executed sculptural work, suitable for decorative or collection display.
