Late 18th Century Pair Porcelain Busts

About the Item

Late 18th Century Pair Porcelain Busts depicting the Greek figures Homer and Artemis, both featuring firing marks. The bust of Homer is based on a much-restored Roman copy of a Hellenistic original. It depicts the poet as a mature bearded man, with creased forehead, wearing a fillet and tunic. The blank eyes allude to Homer’s blindness. Artemis is the Greek Goddess of the hunt, nature and childbirth. Provenance: The Manor House, Donaghadee, Co. Antrim
