Bronze Bust of Lord Chesterfield Victoria and Albert Museum.

 
 
Bronze Bust of Philip Dormer Stanhope.

Fourth Earl of Chesterfield.

Louis Francois Roubiliac.
 
Victoria and Albert Museum.

Purchased from dealer Simon Spero in 1959 for £90.

Photographs here taken by the author.


I suspect that the socle and the block behind the bust are replacements - the hexagonal nut on the supporting strap is a giveaway!
