Vintage French Plaster Bust of Voltaire
About the Item
A renowned literary figure and French icon, this plaster bust captures the likeness of Voltaire. With layers built up and revealed by time, the time touched appearance reflects a journey through time– a motif fitting a great thinker. Buff titanium peels to reveal a white and cream, the palette of neutrals gives way to the aged surface of plaster, lightly eroded into a matrix of pits and furrows. The textured surface is a testament to the passage of time and enhances the emotional impact of the artist's sober pose.
