EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait medallion, created by the renowned Belgian sculptor Désiré Ringel d'Illzach in 1892, showcases a thoughtful and introspective image of the celebrated American author Nathaniel Hawthorne. The bronze medallion, which measures approximately 3 inches in diameter, is a testament to the enduring legacy of this 19th-century literary figure. Hawthorne's portrait is depicted in profile, with his long, curly hair cascading down his shoulder and his penetrating gaze fixed on the horizon. The intricate details of his facial features, from the furrowed brow to the subtle creases around his eyes, convey a deep sense of intellectual and creative intensity. Born in France but based in Belgium, Ringel d'Illzach was a prolific sculptor whose works often featured historical and literary figures. This medallion of Nathaniel Hawthorne is a prime example of his exceptional talent for capturing the essence of his subjects. The medallion's rich, warm patina adds to its timeless allure, making it a prized addition to any collection of historic art or literature. This portrait medallion of Nathaniel Hawthorne is now part of the permanent collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The medallion's provenance as a work of European art from the 19th century adds to its historical significance, making it a valuable piece of cultural heritage that connects us to the past and the enduring legacy of one of America's greatest authors.
