Description: |
Taken from the original plaster sculpted from life by Nemon in Freud's Vienna garden in 1931, and deemed by Freud to be “an astonishingly life-like impression”, this powerful and brooding signed portrait is cast by hand in 85% bronze resin, and finished with the characteristic deep wax patina of the bronze original which is held by the Nemon Estate. The bust weighs 1.7 kg, and stands 15 cm high, 10 cm wide, and 10 cm deep on a 7 cm solid resin base. Each bust is sold with a signed Certificate of Authenticity from the Nemon Estate and historical information including a photograph of Oscar Nemon and Sigmund Freud in Freud’s Vienna garden. |
