Robert Berks (American, 1922-2011) bronzed clay bust depicting President Abraham Lincoln. Signed BERKS (with copyright) and dated "58". Mounted onto a brown base (some chips at bottom). Overall: 16 1/2" H. Bust measures 11 1/2" H x approx. 6" W. Note: Robert Berks was known for his highly textured sculptures of American political figures including John and Robert Kennedy. He created the Lincoln bust in the Kentucky Capitol dome in Frankfort. Sticker on bottom says Alva Museum Replicas which is who sold the piece.
Please note, he has chip on his nose and ear and small area on back of head. A bronze toned paint pen would allow for it to blend better and not be as noticeable. This is a heavy piece made of bronzed clay. Weights in at 16 pounds!
