This sculpture conveys a sense of grandeur and intellectual authority, depicting a seated figure draped in flowing robes, holding a large hammer-like object with one hand while the other rests upon a medallion featuring a finely carved portrait. The poised expression and upright posture exude confidence and calm strength, while the contrast between the soft folds of the fabric and the firm, geometric details of the attributes creates a dynamic balance. The verdigris patina enriches the surface with depth and tonal variation, adding a timeless weight that enhances the statue’s impression of dignity and enduring presence.
