Ontwerp voor een monument voor C. Brunings: een borstbeeld in een nis met Fama Possibly 1806

Bartholomeus Ziesenis, a Dutch sculptor active in the late 18th and early 19th century, created this design for a monument honoring C. Brunings. The design depicts a bust of Brunings within a niche, accompanied by a figure of Fama, the Roman goddess of fame, who gently lays a hand on his shoulder. This classical style monument emphasizes the virtues and achievements of the deceased. The Latin inscription at the base provides biographical details about Brunings and serves as a testament to his life. This design, likely dating back to 1806, reflects the Neoclassical aesthetic popular during Ziesenis's time.
