Den svenske biskop J. H. Thomander 1860

"Den svenske biskop J. H. Thomander" is a marble bust sculpted by H.W. Bissen in 1860. It is a portrait of Johan Henrik Thomander, a Swedish bishop, and captures his likeness with realistic detail. The bust is currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen, Denmark. Bissen was a prominent Danish sculptor, known for his portraits and historical figures, and this piece showcases his ability to convey both the physical features and the character of his subject. The sculpture is a prime example of neoclassical art, a style that emulated the classical ideals of beauty and form.
