Hertuginden af Montebello 1834

"Hertuginden af Montebello" is a plaster bust sculpted by Danish artist H.W. Bissen in 1834. The work is a portrait of a woman, likely a member of the aristocracy given the title "Hertuginden" (Duchess). Bissen was a prominent sculptor in the 19th century, known for his realistic depictions of people and his use of classical styles. The bust is now part of the collection at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen. The bust's realistic details and the subject's formal pose reflect the neoclassical style prevalent in the 19th century.
