From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Buste de Bellone is a 1883 ink by Auguste Rodin, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching and drypoint artwork features a bust of a woman wearing a helmet with a plume. Her long hair cascades down her back, and she gazes to the left. The image is rendered in black ink on a beige background. The woman's facial expression is serious, and her attire suggests a connection to ancient Greek or Roman culture. The level of detail in the artwork is impressive, with intricate lines and textures that add depth to the image.
