Plaster Portrait Bust — G. Lowell, 1951 (Mid-Century Studio Work)

$495.00

A gentle, observant portrait of a young woman, modeled in plaster and finished by hand. The sculptor’s touch is present everywhere—softly planed planes around the eyes and mouth, lively tool work through the hair, and a calm, forward gaze that gives the study real presence. Incised on the reverse “1951 / G. LOWELL.” Hollow-back construction and the warm, chalky patina are consistent with mid-century studio casts.

Medium: white plaster (unsealed)
Date/Signature: 1951, signed G. LOWELL (reverse)
Condition: stable overall with scattered small chips/nicks to the edges and base, a few surface scuffs and incidental marks from studio handling; no structural breaks. Presents beautifully.
