Description
Plaster bust depicting the classical veiled maiden, with finely modeled features and draped garments rendered in high relief. The figure's head is adorned with a detailed headpiece and strand of beads, with the veil cascading over her shoulders. Finished in a soft white tone with subtle terracotta-colored accents to emphasize the sculptural depth. The reverse is fully detailed, and the bust is mounted on a circular pedestal base. The veiled maiden motif, popularized in 19th century European sculpture, was celebrated for its technical mastery in rendering translucent drapery over the human form. Such pieces were often inspired by classical antiquity and Renaissance interpretations of purity, beauty, and mystery.
