This plaster replica of Giuseppe Ceracchi's 1794 marble bust was made by Lanelli following Hamilton's tragic death. Ceracchi (b.1751), the renowned Roman sculptor, visited Philadelphia in 1791 and 1794. Here he modeled many of America's founding fathers, Washington, Jefferson, etc., in the guise of Roman emperors. The engraving of Hamilton on the US $10 bill is based upon the Ceracchi bust.

Banished from Italy because of his liberal political views, Ceracchi was executed in Paris in 1801 after plotting to assassinate Napoleon.

The bust was painted in 1955.
