Greek Head Fragment

A sculptural fragment rendered in iron and finished in enamel, this Greek Head evokes the quiet authority of antiquity — the truncated form of a classical visage distilled to its essential presence. At sixteen inches, it carries the weight of a relic while reading with the considered restraint of a contemporary object, equally at home anchoring a library shelf or anchoring a composed vignette on a console. John Richard brings to it a material seriousness that elevates the piece beyond ornament into the realm of collected artifact.
