About the Item

Edition of 12. Signed and inscribed on front right of base: "De LUE sc '86 © 1987 4/12 Tx". Cast at the Tallix Foundry in Beacon, NY. "Job, as much as any work of De Lue, shows the male torso in repose. De Lue cannot make him emaciated or covered with sores; instead, he focuses his attention on a single star or spiritual point of light for Job to think on God" from D. Roger Howlett "Donald De Lue: Gods, Prophets, and Heroes," 1990, pg. XXI.
