The bust, measuring 60.3x48.3x24.8 cm, is housed at the prestigious Yale Center for British Art as part of the esteemed Paul Mellon Collection. Sir Andrew Fountaine, a prominent figure in English society during the 18th century, is immortalized in this austere and imperious portrait bust. Roubilliac's masterful craftsmanship brings out every intricate detail of Fountaine's visage, capturing his commanding presence and dignified demeanor.
