Plaster Bust of Hermes | Stockholm, c. 1920

An early 20th-century plaster bust of Hermes, sourced in Stockholm and dating to circa 1920. Modeled after classical Greek sculpture, the form reflects a softened neoclassical interpretation, with balanced proportions and a calm, idealized expression.

The surface has developed a beautiful aged patina, with subtle tonal variation that gives the plaster a stone-like presence. Mounted on its original socle, the silhouette is both elegant and architectural.

Originally conceived as an academic or decorative study, pieces of this kind were often found in libraries, studios, and cultivated interiors. Today, it brings sculptural weight to a console, pedestal, or shelf.
