About the Item
This is a great sculpture with real gravitas and elegance. A great conception in terms of the forms and planes. Can be a star piece in a room - stone and surface are very attractive! Active primarily in the mid to late 20th century, Leo De Beer is known for his ability to blend abstraction with figuration, using the dense texture of stone to explore the expressive potential of the human form. His keen sensitivity to material and balance is evident in the harmonious interplay of mass and flow throughout his work.
In this semi-abstract seated figure carved from Belgian Bluestone, De Beer demonstrates a refined, contemplative approach to the human body. The angular forms are softened by smooth transitions, creating a quiet, grounded presence that captures a sense of introspection and stylized humanity.
De Beer often does not sign his works, this is from a Dutch dealer originally. The work has some weight to it so it must sit on a pedestal designed for art, or a very sturdy and strong table.

Splash
By Robert Cook
Located in Greenwich, CT
Robert Cook’s Splash sculpture draws inspiration from the iconic photograph of a drop of milk creating a circle and splash in a pool of milk. This fleeting moment of suspended motion sparked Cook’s exploration of how to capture such dynamic energy in a static form.
Robert Cook was a great American sculptor and his works are in many museums and his iconic Dinoseras piece commands a spot on the street of New York at 51st Street.
Important to note with this work that it is unique and there are no other casts. Cook sculpted in wax and when he cast this destroyed the wax and there was no mould. Very few sculptors work in this manner and it speaks to a very pure and altruistic form of sculpture. If perhaps he had been more commercially minded he would have done large editions but instead he valued singularity as in nature.
In Splash, Cook freezes a moment of kinetic energy, capturing the elegant tension between impact and expansion. The sculpture embodies both grace and chaos, with a fluidity that suggests movement at the very instant it’s frozen in time. Cook’s mastery of his medium allows this dynamic moment to be immortalized in bronze, creating a powerful and emotional resonance that transcends the physical form, making Splash both a formal and philosophical exploration of time, space, and motion.
