He looks as stern as you'd expect a minister to look.
ReplyDeleteHe does have a stern look about him. It is a lovely bust though.
ReplyDeletePretty bust... looks like he was a resolute person. Good choice for this weeks letter.

Although he looks rather formidable, I'm sure he must have been revered to have had a bust made of him. Have a delightful week,
