Under The Laurel Wreath — Head In White Carrara Marble, Circa 1900
Crowned with a laurel wreath, this male head carved from white Carrara marble likely depicts Julius Caesar. The furrowed brow, sharply defined profile, and closed mouth give him a determined expression, in the style of Roman portraits.
The polished finish of the face contrasts with the finely striated strands of hair and the broad, sculpted leaves of the wreath. The marble catches the light and accentuates the facial features.
Created around 1900, this 40-cm sculpture will lend a classical presence to a bookshelf, a console table, or a small bench.
