Carved Marble Bust of a Boy

19th century carved marble bust of Dickens-style boy… possibly “Oliver Twist’s” Artful Dodger.
Gazing downward with mouth agape, with wild hair and edge-worn, rumpled clothing. But wearing not only a proper bowtie but also a feather tucked into the band of his brimmed hat.
While the genre was somewhat popular with Italian carvers of the 19th century, this child’s dress is distinctly not Italian but more English in style.
I’m sticking with my Dickens theory.
Smooth, unpolished pure white marble.
