Bust of Lorenzo de’ MediciItalian, Florence probably 19th century In the manner of Andrea del Verrocchio (Italian (born and active in Florence), 1435–1488 Italian) “This bust supposedly represents Lorezo de’Medici, one of the most famous members of Florence’s leading family in the Renaissance. The authenticity of the bust, however, has long been questioned. Does the dreamy, sentimental expression indicate a 19th century idea of the Renaissance? Or does the impressive and intriguing modeling of the armor speak for its authenticity?”Photo by Shelby NavoneEdited in VSCO CamObject and Description from The Boston Museum of Fine Arts -- source link
