Little is known about the origins of this sculpture though it is widely believed that it was created for anatomical reference at The Academy in Copenhagen, the sitter actually being a pupil of the school. The most known reference to the sculpture is through its inclusion in "Scene from the Academy in Copenhagen", a painting by Knud Baade between 1827-1827 (Nasjonalmuseet, Oslo). The bust is juxtaposed against the Borghese Gladiator but only holds slight physical similarities.     If you produce new work with the model and want to share it with us, drop us a line at [email protected] or [email protected].
