This marble bust, created by Mino da Fiesole between 1450 and 1475, depicts Cardinal Guillaume d'Estouteville, a prominent figure in the Catholic Church. The realistic portrayal of the Cardinal's features, including his furrowed brow and determined expression, showcases the artist's skill in capturing human likeness. The bust's simple, rounded form and smooth surface are characteristic of the Early Renaissance style, which emphasized clarity and naturalism. It is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, NY.
