Hello, this item is a monumental white marble bust depicting a bearded male figure, unsigned and of uncertain date or authorship. Carved with considerable skill, the expressive face, downcast gaze, and flowing hair suggest a figure of classical inspiration, potentially evoking mythological figures such as Zeus, Poseidon, or a philosopher like Socrates or Plato. The wave-like motion of the hair and the highly emotive facial expression suggest the hand of a sculptor familiar with late Neoclassical or Romantic styles, though no specific attribution is currently possible. The work stands approximately 32 inches tall and weighs over 200 pounds, mounted on a marble socle.

In terms of market value, the absence of a signature or documentation limits the attribution and thus the ceiling for valuation, though the scale and quality still command attention.
