Description from the seller
This set includes two small marble busts modeled after ancient Greek and Roman examples. Each bust depicts a different male figure.
A bearded man with a stern expression
A young man with a round face and curly hair.
The busts are probably made of marble, as evidenced by their natural coloring, weight, and characteristic smooth surface. The craftsmanship is inspired by classical portrait studies from antiquity.
Condition report
One of the two busts has a break at the lower area / base. The damage is clearly documented in the photos. The second bust is intact.
Ideal for collectors of classic replicas, decoration, study purposes, or as a complement to thematic displays around ancient art.
