The Bust of Alessandro Peretti di Montalto is a portrait sculpture by the Italian artist Gian Lorenzo Bernini. Executed in 1622 and 1623 the sculpture is currently housed in the Kunsthalle Hamburg in Germany. Although possibly mentioned by one of Bernini’s early biographers the bust had been considered lost and therefore makes no appearance in Rudolf Wittkower’s catalogue of Bernini’s sculptures of 1955.
