A bust is a sculptured, painted, drawn, or engraved representation of the upper part of the human figure,[1] usually depicting a person's chest, shoulders, and head, normally supported by a stand. These forms recreate the likeness of an individual. These may be of any suitable material (usually marble or other durable material).
