Today, a famous bust of George Washington is to be auctioned at Sotheby's in LONDON, ENGLAND!! Why England?
It is expected to get $490,000.
It is from French sculptor Jean-Antoine Houdin and was commissioned by the US Congress. He went to Philadelphia in 1787 for a series of studies. He made it in France after his return and this one is called a superb rendition of our nation's first president.
Oh, George. Give Us the Gaze. --Cooter
