Polychrome Stucco Head Sketch Cast Fragment 19th century

About the Item

Large stucco head with traces of polychromy, Italy, 19th century. It could be a cast of a museum sculpture made during the 19th century or a plaster sketch of a work. In any case, even if the polychromy is partly lost and despite the signs of time, the charm of this head is unquestionable, as is its high decorative potential.
