Description
Photograph of a sculpture of a man's head in the bronzing process, [s.d.]. A depiction of a man's head leaning slightly forward stands on a rectangular glass plate at center. What appear to be small, thin candles protrude from the sculpture and meld together in joints of melted wax. What resembles a larger, circular candle sits on top of the frame of smaller candles as an index finger extended from a hand above holds it in place. Photo sleeve reads "Bronze cast process 36454-see 36465".
