A striking 19th century iron Grand Tour bust, evocative of classical antiquity and rich with patina. Cast in solid iron, this dramatic male visage features deep-set, hollowed eyes, a bold furrowed brow, and an expressive beard—hallmarks of the Greco-Roman aesthetic that captivated European travelers during the Grand Tour era. The sculpture’s weathered green finish lends an aged, timeworn quality that echoes the surfaces of ancient bronze.
Mounted on a minimal custom black metal stand, this piece stands as a powerful decorative object—equally suited for a collector’s cabinet or a curated library shelf. A fine example of 19th century neoclassical revivalism with sculptural gravitas and historical allure.
