Bust of Lord Byron, 1852

Anonymous

Bust of Lord Byron, 1852. The original of this bust, by the Florentine sculptor Lorenzo Bartolini, came as the result of the artist pursuing Byron for a sitting. Byron wrote to his publisher John Murray, "Bartolini the celebrated Sculptor wrote to desire to take my bust - I consented on condition that he also took that of the Countess Guiccioli... The Sculptor is a famous one & as it was done by his own particular request will be done well probably." With Byron’s consent, Bartolini travelled to Pisa where Byron was living at the time. Bartolini cast a naturalistic impression of the poet, perhaps too much so as Lord Byron wrote again to Murray, “The bust does not turn out a very good one – though it may be like for aught I know – as it exactly resembles a superannuated Jesuit.” Nevertheless, Countess Giuccioli regarded it “the best likeness of Byron she knew of…”
