This bronze bust of Pope Innocent X by Alessandro Algardi, dating from 1685-1695, showcases the remarkable detail and realism of Baroque sculpture. The work, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, captures the pope's stern countenance and elaborate papal attire, with intricate folds and textures meticulously rendered. Although Algardi died in 1654, this posthumous work reflects his lasting influence on the style of Baroque portraiture.
