The "Bust of Mirabeau" is a notable sculptural artwork crafted by the renowned French artist, Jean-Antoine Houdon. This exceptional work portrays Honoré Gabriel Riqueti, Comte de Mirabeau, who was a significant figure in the early stages of the French Revolution. Houdon, known for his realistic and insightful portraiture, captures Mirabeau with a striking intensity and emotive power, making it a successful representation of the subject's complex character.

The sculpture is dated 1791, at the height of Mirabeau's political career. However, the exact circumstances of its commission and creation are not well documented, which is a common challenge with many works from this turbulent period in French history. Despite the less than comprehensive documentation, the bust has gained recognition for its remarkable artistic skill and significant historical context. It serves as an invaluable window into the revolutionary era and the persona of one of its significant characters.

Prominent features of the bust include the nuanced facial expression conveying determination and intelligence, and the detailed rendering of Mirabeau's hair and clothing. Houdon's expertise in capturing the subtle nuances of human expressions is evident in this work. His artistic style has a distinct emphasis on the realistic and individualistic traits of his subject, as opposed to the idealistic portrayal common during this period.

Presently, the "Bust of Mirabeau" is part of a private collection, and therefore, details regarding its exact location and accessibility remain undisclosed to the public. However, the bust's reputation from additional historical references and photographs make it a significant artefact of Houdon's catalogue and French Revolutionary Portraiture.
