Gaius Julius Caesar - Caricature Head in Hand-Carved Oak, 1970s
About the Item
Well it does not look much like what we know about the Roman Emperor Gajus Julius Caesar's facial appearance. But given the inscription to its back Julius - 44 (Caesar died in 44 before Christ) its safe to assume this is a caricature. Its a large monumental head bust measuring 40 cm in height. Hand-carved using 'primitive' tools such like wood chisels, small axes and knives. Its a unique piece made in Denmark between 1950-1980 by relatively unknown Aksel Hansen who worked in multiple medias: ceramic, wood and canvas.
