"Young Man in Profile", Unique Art Deco Bronze Relief Sculpture of Male Youth

About the Item

Beautifully modeled, cast and patinated, this bronze rondel features the head in profile of a young man with hair falling over his forehead, a strong nose, and sensitive mouth, probably sculpted in the late 1920s or 1930s. It is not signed, but the high quality of the sculpture and casting would suggest that an important artist such as Robert Tait Mackenzie made this piece.
