Description

This beautiful Grand Tour Neoclassical bronze bust depicts Asclepius, known in Greek as Asklepios and in Latin as Aesculapius, the Greco-Roman god of medicine. As the son of Apollo, the god of healing, truth, and prophecy, and the mortal princess Coronis, Asclepius was taught the art of healing by the wise Centaur Chiron. This finely crafted bronze bust captures the serene and wise expression of Asclepius, making it a distinguished piece for any collection. The bust is elegantly mounted on a stone plinth adorned with a laurel wreath on the front, adding to its classical aesthetic. It measures 12.25 inches high, 4.5 inches wide, and 3.25 inches deep, and weighs 6 pounds, reflecting its substantial and high-quality construction. Good antique condition with signs of surface wear, small chips to stone base. Please review the photos for further condition assessment. This exquisite piece is not only a tribute to the ancient god of medicine but also a representation of the timeless art and beauty of Neoclassical sculpture. Ideal for a library or study, this bust of Asclepius is a remarkable addition for collectors of classical art and lovers of history. Check out our other antique listings.
