A grand-scale 25-inch vintage plaster bust of the young Antinous, a favorite of beloved Roman emperor Hadrian. The lifelike details of his handsome face, with a straight nose and thick, curly hair, are depicted in a melancholic expression perhaps reflecting on his premature death before his 20th birthday.
Crafted from durable plaster and finished in a smooth, matte white tone with a layer of aged patina, the bust features a beautifully molded torso, resting upon a substantial integrated plinth base. This piece offers an instant infusion of intellectual depth, and architectural presence, making it ideal for a library, mantlepiece, or console table.
