Head of a Man

Vincenzo Gemito

Cleveland Museum of Art

The sculpture depicts a man's head and neck. The man has short hair and a serious expression. His facial features include a nose, two eyes, and a mouth with visible wrinkles around it. He appears to have a double chin. The sculpture is made of dark brown bronze or metal with visible aging and wear, giving it a weathered appearance. It sits on a short, wide pedestal base that is octagonal in shape. The background is a gradient from black at the top to gray at the bottom. The overall style is realistic. The title of the piece is "Head of a Man" and it is by Vincenzo Gemito.
