The ''Bust of a Man'' is a notable work by the Italian Renaissance sculptor known as Antico (real name Pier Jacopo Alari Bonacolsi, c. 1455 – 1528). Antico was renowned for his bronze sculptures and his revival of classical themes and techniques, which were influential in the courts of the Italian Renaissance. The ''Bust of a Man'' is a prime example of Antico's mastery in bronze, showcasing his ability to capture both the physical and psychological presence of the subject.

While the identity of the man depicted in the bust is not definitively known, it is believed to represent a figure from classical antiquity or a contemporary of Antico's time, possibly a patron or a notable figure in the court of Mantua, where the artist was predominantly active. The work is characterized by its meticulous attention to detail and the lifelike representation of the subject, reflecting the humanist interests of the Renaissance in individuality and the study of human nature.

The bust is crafted with a high degree of realism, featuring a naturalistic portrayal of facial features, hair, and attire that suggests a person of status and intellect. The sculpture's surface bears the polished finish that is typical of Antico's bronzes, highlighting the sculptor's skill in the medium and his understanding of the play of light on the material.

As an example of Renaissance portraiture, the ''Bust of a Man'' by Antico is significant for its art historical value, providing insight into the period's aesthetic preferences and the technical prowess of one of its most skilled bronze sculptors. The bust is held in high regard for its artistic merit and is considered an important piece within Antico's oeuvre, contributing to our understanding of Renaissance art and the role of sculpture during this transformative period in European history.
