Bust "G.G. Yagoda (antique)"

Are you a fan of vintage style decor and historical figures? Then you will undoubtedly appreciate a series of busts created to echo the aesthetics and craftsmanship of antique statuary. It's true that modern techniques and materials have made for lighter, more polished pieces of art; but it is the heavy, roughly sculpted look of antiquities that give them a unique charm. There is, undeniably, an intense appeal to these pieces which ignites memories of a time when artists did not spare materials, painstakingly crafting each piece from a substantial amount of bronze.

Among our collection, we have the bust of Heinrich Grigoryevich Yagoda (1891-1938), a notable figure in Soviet history. Yagoda was a revolutionary who held significant positions in the Soviet state security bodies. Serving in the Cheka, GPU, OGPU, and NKVD, he further rose to prominence as the People's Commissar of Internal Affairs of the USSR. As the first ever 'general commissioner of state security', he was a key figure shaping early Soviet society.

This is an incredible opportunity for collectors and history buffs alike to own a piece that exemplifies the vintage styling of antique art while portraying a prominent historical figure. Add to your collection or gift it to someone passionate about history and antique art. 'In the field of art and culture, the past is never dead; it is not even past.' Let this exquisite bust, modelled on the vintage style, stand as a testament to that sentiment in your home or office.
