拍品專文

Thomas Moore (1779-1852) was an Irish playwright who wrote the lyrics for The Minstrel Boy and The Last Rose of Summer. A close friend of Lord Byron, who also sat for Bartolini, he was responsible, with John Murray, for burning Byron's memoirs after his death. Two other versions of the current bust are known, one in marble, and another in plaster (Beauty and Truth in Marble, Lorenzo Bartolini, Complete Works, Uffizi Gallery, 2013, accessed 21 Oct. 2016).
