About the Item
ABOUT SCULPTURE
This wonderful sculptural and portrait work was certainly created by a master sculptor, although not signed by the author. The face of this typical all-American boy, as if familiar to everyone, is distinguished by a special emotional intensity, expressed in the seriousness of his gaze and in tightly compressed lips. This is what makes this sculpture a real portrait, reflecting the internal psychological state of the model.
