Adam Mickiewicz Bust after David d'Angers, Polish Poet Sculpture for a Library or Study

Give a library or study a literary focal point with this portrait of Polish Romantic poet Adam Mickiewicz, adapted from a bronze bust by Pierre Jean David d'Angers in the National Museum in Krakow. The specific museum cast is dated 1845, with a dedication to the sculptor's friend Adam Mickiewicz.

The portrait preserves the curled hair, sideburns, long neck and original integrated plinth of the museum sculpture. David d'Angers met Mickiewicz in Weimar in 1829, and the two later became friends. A thoughtful gift for a poetry reader, Polish literature enthusiast or collector who enjoys historic portraits.

Made to order in PLA, available in Ivory White, Marble Stone or Charcoal Black and 5, 9 or 12 inch heights. These finishes are surface appearances; the replica is not bronze, marble or stone. Intended for indoor display.
