Crowned head

    picture-1

    Zagreb
    Parler's workshop
    around 1400
    Sandy limestone, carved
    height 25 cm


    This crowned bearded head of an older man was a part of a statue that had decorated the interior of the Zagreb cathedral. Its nose has been damaged, and a part of the crown shows sings of wear. Plastically modelled locks of hair are visible at the back of the head.

    Donated to the museum around 1920 by the Zagreb Chapter.
