The sitter for this bust was Nan Condron, a professional artist’s model. Epstein first met her at the Café Royal in Regent Street, London and worked with her for several years. Condron was a bohemian and Epstein sought a likeness that was expressive of her character and presence as well as her appearance. Epstein grew up in New York, and studied in Paris before settling in London in 1905, where he became a media celebrity and one of the most controversial artists of his age.
