Bust

Duchess of Kent

We identified which particular Duchess of Kent is represented by finding the painting on which the portrait is based at baltyra but the artist is not given.

Site: Duchess of Kent (1 memorial)

N1, Prebend Street, 32, Duchess of Kent pub

The building is early-mid 20th century so we guess it replaced an earlier building, from a time when the Duchess was well-known.

We would not describe this face as ugly so it can't be Socrates. We reckon it's Homer - he's often shown with a beanie hat.
