Lawson Rudge
Wooden Maquette of a Leg, Hand Carved British Sculpture

About the Item

Hand-carved wooden trunk and plinth Height: 38 1/2 inches (98 cm) Width: 10 1/2 inches (27 cm) Lawson Rudge Lawson Rudge was born in 1936. He is currently living in various parts of the UK including mid Devon, North Cornwall and South Wales.  His work is extremely popular and is fast becoming a collector’s item. From an academic and traditional training in painting Lawson began producing life paintings, figure compositions and landscape. As Lawson progressed his style started to change and he started painting more expressive and surrealistic work as time went on.  It was at this point during the 60’s that Lawson began to take images from the paintings and transform them into three dimensional forms using various materials. The sculptures are variously inspired, some personal fantasy and others being taken from straight observation.Lawson has exhibited in museums, universities and galleries, in the South west, Wales and the Midlands, with work in private galleries in Europe and America.

    Hope-Pinker was born in Peckham, Surrey, the son of a stonemason and builder employing 5 or 6 men c.1871 in Hove, Sussex, who seems to have taught his son much of his stone-carving skills, although he also attended the Royal Academy Schools (c.1871). Hope-Pinker typically carved without a model from drawings. The bulk of his work was portrait sculpture and John Hunter...

  • Reclining Figure Carved Marble Early 20th Century France
    Located in London, GB
    Circle of Henri-Gaudier-Breska 1891-1915 Reclining Figure Carved marble Height 5 inches Born Henri Alphonse Séraphin Marie Gaudier near Orléans in France, Gaudier-Brzeska started using his hyphenated name in 1910 when he met the Polish writer Sophie Brzeska. They moved to London together in January 1911 and adopted their new names and the identity of brother and sister in order to make their cohabitation respectable. Gaudier-Brzeska started to establish himself as a sculptor in 1912. Initially influenced heavily by Rodin, he later assimilated more influences from the modernist movement of cubism and from examples of non-European art he saw in London’s museums. He met the sculptor Jacob Epstein in June 1912, who further encouraged him to break with classical Greek tradition. While working from 25 Winthorpe Road in 1913–14, Gaudier-Brzeska became increasingly involved in London’s avant-garde art scene. He exhibited at the London Salon in July 1913, where he met the poet and arts patron Ezra Pound. Pound described Brzeska as ‘like a well-made young wolf or some soft-moving, bright-eyed wild thing’. Gaudier-Brzeska subsequently became associated with the vorticist movement led by Wyndham Lewis, contributing two important articles to Lewis’s magazine Blast and signing his name against the vorticist manifesto. He was also a founding member of the London Group, which formed when the all-male Camden Arts Group joined with independent artists to challenge the dominance of the Royal Academy of Arts. Other founding members included Walter Sickert, Robert Bevan and Spencer Gore...
