Christopher Moore (British/Irish
Christopher Moore (British/Irish 1790-1863) probably "Surgeon T.S. Pettigrew Esq. F.R.S." 1829 marble signed and dated on spine of socle "C. MOORE/ Sculpt./ 1829" height 28 in. Note: This very impressive bust is presented in the full Classical style with toga drapery yet with the highly naturalistic details of the sitter's fashionable whiskers framing his cheeks and chin. The identification is provided by the "Dictionary of Contributors to the Royal Academy of Arts" in London where in 1829 the Irish-born sculptor Moore (who had moved to England in 1821) submitted only five busts: one represented a rabbi one was a young boy and two were more senior Members of Parliament. Dr. Pettigrew (1765-1832) had become a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1827 and this bust (Moore's 1829 entry no. 1143 and fifth bust) was doubtless executed to record that membership.
