What periods do these portrait heads cover?

The available pieces span from the late seventeenth century through the Victorian era and into the early decades of the twentieth century. Nineteenth-century iterations form the largest portion of the current selection. Earlier seventeenth-century examples sit alongside Edwardian and 1930s interpretations, reflecting enduring tastes for historical portraiture.

What materials were used to create them?

Makers worked primarily in stone and metal, producing pieces in Carrara marble, white marble, alabaster, and cast bronze. Softer mediums like plaster and terracotta also appear frequently. Some wooden carvings and works on paper featuring sanguine or paint complete the range of surviving materials.

How do I identify a Neoclassical piece?

Neoclassical pieces draw direct inspiration from the art of ancient Greece and Rome, prioritising balanced proportions and dignified expressions. Sculptors adopted smooth finishes and classical attire to evoke historical authority. These works often date from the nineteenth-century revivals rather than antiquity itself.
