Cheetah Stretching Ingwe FoundryS31 Bronze Sculpture Maquette 3/15 Monogram BMR
Located in BUNGAY, SUFFOLK
Bronze study of a stretching cheetah.
RHS under the belly bearing Ingwe Foundry stamp, ‘S31’ or ‘S3I’, Edition 3/15, monogram BMR.
Artist unknown.
I have been unsuccessfully resarching who the artist could be.
The stretching pose of the cheetah is contemplative with a graceful, ease and content expression suggesting its attunement and hierarchy within the landscape and the animal world. Its power is conveyed with a noble quality in the pose, the sleek form and the sinewy musculature.
Beautifully handworked with rich brown patina.
Almost certainly inspired by the work of Dylan Lewis...

Sculpture Figurative Man Sitting Contemplation Bronze Manner Giacometti
Located in BUNGAY, SUFFOLK
- The composition is the timeless theme of contemplation in the manner of Alberto Giacometti.
- Physical characteristics have been removed and reduced to create a pared down form which accentuates how the viewer receives and responds to this thinking/meditative man in a relaxed pose being with himself and what is around him.
- The organic hand working is highly textured defining the work creating different perspectives and contours.
- Modelled in resin with antique bronze finish
- Signed Mendes
- Alberto Giacometti is best known for his elongated figures, often walking or standing, as well as figural groupings in different spatial situations. Giacometti’s unique vision whittled his subjects down to heavily worked but stick-thin figures.
- Opportunity to purchase a sculpture in the manner of one of the most important sculptors of the 20th century at a fraction of the cost of an original.

Fashioned after the c1539 statue of Brutus by Michelangelo, Bargello Museum in Florence.
Marcus Junius Brutus Caepio (c.85-42): Roman politician, murderer of Gaius Julius Caesar and one of the last defenders of the republic. Marcus Junius Brutus is one of the great names of Roman history. Central to the notorious conspiracy that resulted in the assassination of the dictator Julius Caesar on the Ides of March 44 BC, Brutus gave brief hope to those who longed for the restoration of republican government. Yet by August of the same year he was on his way from Italy to the Greek east; a little over two years later he had committed suicide in the face of defeat at the hands of Mark Antony...

Sculpture Sandstone Carved Figurative The Thinker
Located in BUNGAY, SUFFOLK
The Thinker
Mid-Century Modern, sandstone sculpture depicting a seated man, artist unknown
This Mid-Century Modern interpretation of The Thinker interprets the pain, release and liberation associated with free-thinking. The man conveys vulnerability, tenderness and acceptance, his body yielding into the support of the chair creating a sense of rest and peace.
Provenance: Private Collection acquired from The Hidden Gallery, Scotland
Measures: Height 50cm.,20" Length 33cm., 15" Depth 22cm., 81/2"
The Thinker - Auguste Rodin (1840 -1917). Cast made by Fonderie Alexis Rudier in 1904. Transfered to the musée Rodin in 1922.
When conceived in 1880 in its original size (approx. 70 cm) as the crowning element of The Gates of Hell, seated on the tympanum, The Thinker was entitled The Poet. He represented Dante, author of the Divine Comedy which had inspired The Gates, leaning forward to observe the circles of Hell, while meditating on his work. The Thinker was therefore initially both a being with a tortured body, almost a damned soul, and a free-thinking man, determined to transcend his suffering through poetry. The pose of this figure owes much to Carpeaux’s Ugolino (1861) and to the seated portrait of Lorenzo de’ Medici carved by Michelangelo (1526-31). While remaining in place on the monumental Gates...

Alan Wallwork Vessel Vase Pottery Sculpture TOTEM White Brown Terracotta
Located in BUNGAY, SUFFOLK
Alan Wallwork (1931-): Organic landscape sculptural vessel, 1960-1965
Exhibiting the articulated, inventive, organic qualities & tactility of Wallwork’s early oeuvre for which he is best known
- This sculptural landscape vessel has been handmade by coiling, slabbing and shaping the clay. The totemic form and pitted and pierced surfaces draw on the abstract landscape and tactility of elements in nature. matte glazes and oxides have been skillfully used to enhance the rich textures of the surfaces and the organic aesthetic.
- Wallwork is one of the great individualists in British pottery, developing an archetypal language that echoed some of the wider artistic obsessions of that period, what the art critic Herbert Read called the “postwar ferment” of sculptural activity.
- This piece was made during 1960-1965, the time that Wallwork was sharing a studio in Greenwich with Bernard Rooke and comes from a private collection along with a waterscape vase by Rooke and a bottle by Robert Fournier...
