Busts of Beethoven made by Anton Dietrich in 1821-1822. Two versions exist. The first version (1821) shows the "contemporary" Beethoven, with long hair (now owned by the Historisches Museum der Stadt Wien). The second version (1822), a "classical" Beethoven with shorter hair revealing his ears, was formerly in the collection of Henrietta Dux, Vienna.
