Salvator Mundi
by PUGET, Pierre, Marble, height 46 cm
The bust was placed in a circular niche on the main fa�ade of Puget’s house built in rue de Rome in Marseille. According to tradition in 1694 it was transferred to the church of the Minorites where, according to his will, he was buried beside his parents. Later the bust disappeared and resurfaced again from a private collection in the 19th century.
