About the Item

Possibly Beatrice, but likely a Grand Tour bust figure, painted plaster over wood. Marked 921 to verso. Barely a few losses to paint. Enchanting and remarkable bust of a young medieval woman. Grand Tour busts were popular souvenirs for wealthy Europeans, particularly British aristocrats, who traveled around Europe, especially Italy, from the 17th to the 19th centuries. These busts often depicted historical figures, mythological characters, or, as seen here, idealized figures in classical style. The provided search results and image descriptions suggest that this could be a 19th-century polychrome painted plaster cast bust, possibly of the "Femme Inconnue" (Unknown Woman), and potentially attributed to Francesco Laurana or Pierre-Louis Peyranne. The term "Grand Tour" refers to the traditional trip around Europe undertaken by wealthy Europeans, particularly British aristocrats, from the 17th to the 19th centuries. These travelers often collected art and antiquities as souvenirs, leading to the production of items specifically for them, like these busts.
