I have a thing for portrait busts and this one is pretty unique, i think. He looks Greek or maybe Italian and a little bit Neanderthal. There's a few chips in it, but i really like this pottery head anyways. I bought it at an antique store in alameda today. What do you think?

I think it looks a bit biblical - as you say that Greek/Italian look, a bit flummoxed or just considering, and a distant view.
Or maybe a neanderthal wondering where the fire stick went!
haha! thanks racer4four!
He has really bright eyes!! He is cool!
Agreed with racer... Looks biblical....
thanks toracat and drfluffy. he does look biblical... and a little bit neanderthal. i'll have to post another picture from a different angle, because his face has a very unusual shape.
Unique find . I think he looks like a made in Mexico version of possibly Jesus ?
i agree manikin. thanks!
i just added some more pics of the neanderthal jesus bust. i hope nobody takes offense at me calling it that. i have no qualms w/ either neanderthals nor jesus, but the name is sticking!
