A bowed head holds immense power, evoking emotions and telling stories across time and mediums. From the contemplative study for Mary Magdalene's head in charcoal, to the hopeful gaze of Edvard Munch's Die Hoffnung II, the solemnity of a portrait medallion of Heinrich Heine, the introspective Drinker, the collective prayer of political prisoners at a church service in Dusseldorf, the pensive chalk study for Hope I, the poetic expression of Wordsworth's portrait, the timeless beauty of Sappho's sculpture, to the reverent silence of a political leader - a bowed head speaks volumes.
