Red je da podelim sa vama ovaj članak o mom omiljenom filozofu.
Dok je Artur bio zgrožen kako je ispadao na nekim portretima i fotografijama ranije, ovu skulpturu je gotivio i bio zadovoljan kako ga je izvajala izvesna sjajna umetnica po imenu Elizabet Nej.

Sculptor is
Elisabet Ney. Completed in 1859, the piece is a portrait bust rendered in marble. The bust was modeled and carved in Germany, but it is now held by the Elisabet Ney Museum in Austin, Texas, United States.
As a young artist in Berlin, Elisabet Ney had sculpted various luminaries of the city, including Jacob Grimm, Cosima Liszt, and Alexander von Humboldt.
In the autumn of 1859, she went to Frankfurt to make a sculpture of prominent philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer. Ney called on Schopenhauer uninvited and unannounced, and at first he refused to be her model.[2] Nonetheless, she soon persuaded him to sit for her, and the two developed a friendship as she composed the portrait.[1]:134–135
Schopenhauer depicts its subject at age seventy-one, a year before his death. The bust prominently features Schopenhauer's much-caricatured bald crown, unruly hair and shaggy sideburns. The figure is unclothed, showing the subject's bare shoulders and upper chest. The eyes are lightly incised, and the head is slightly tilted, with an ambiguous expression; these details make the portrait more personal than Ney's earlier, more strictly neoclassical works.
Schopenhauer was considered to be a good likeness of its subject, if flattering.
The work was well received by critics, and also by Schopenhauer himself, who had been deeply displeased with his own earlier portraits in painting and photography.
