Vintage cast bronze sculptural head fragment, originally part of a life-size figural sculpture, made in Europe circa 1950. Executed using traditional lost-wax casting, the bronze is hollow with approximately ¼-inch wall thickness and weighs nearly 18 pounds. Based on classical academic proportions, the original full figure is estimated to have stood approximately 6.5 to 7 feet tall. The refined modeling, naturalistic proportions, and rich, aged patina are consistent with European sculptures. Rough cut from original sculpture, this piece can be mounted, sanded for a flat even bottom or left as is. Offered as an authentic sculptural fragment bust this bronze head presents a powerful decorative presence and aligns naturally with classical, Brutalist, and modern interior settings. A compelling object for collectors, designers, and admirers of European academic sculpture. Display ready piece. 10"H × 8.5"D × 7"W / ~18lbs Please see photos and reach out with any questions.
