Description
Rescued from cinders after a bomb fell on Holland House in 1940, this is a striking work by Nollekens, among the finest of British sculptors. It presents a romantic and flattering image of George IV, who is shown in Roman dress. The bust was probably given to Lady Holland by the future King in 1807.
