About the Item

A striking early 20th century multicolor marble bust of Aristotle, masterfully carved with lifelike detail and rich classical styling. This monumental sculpture depicts the legendary Greek philosopher with curly hair, a full beard, and draped classical robes, rendered in contrasting marbles to distinguish his features and garments. His chest plate, robe, and the noble expression on his face reflect Aristotle’s revered place in history as a foundational figure in Western philosophy, logic, and ethics. The bust is crafted from variegated marbles—including creamy white for the head, deep brown and reddish tones for the drapery, and black marble base—adding both visual depth and a sense of grandeur to the piece.
