A Wedgwood bust of Shakespeare

A Wedgwood Basalt Bust of William Shakespeare.
 
Sold Aspire Auctions.
Spring Summer 2009.
12.75 inches Tall.
no date letter

Another version of the Scheemakers Trinity Library Dublin Bust.

Perhaps adapted from a plaster by John Cheere.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 I suspect that the impressed date letter has been erased - the abraded area to the left of the impressed Wedgwood Mark is suspicious - the bust perhaps late 19th Century.
