About the Item

A figurative patinated bronze sculpture titled ‘Male Dancer - Lift’ by acclaimed British sculptor, John W. Mills. Mounted on a circular white marble base, this three-dimensional sculpture will make a fantastic display piece in an interior, perfect for a coffee table, desk or sideboard. While this is a motionless, three-dimensional piece, it demonstrates the talent of the artist, the dancer’s posture captured in such a way that a creates the impression of movement. A handwritten sticker can be seen to the base inscribed ‘JWM143 / 6950-’. Price includes Artist’s Resale Rights (ARR) at 4%. John W. Mills (1933-2023) John Mills was a highly celebrated English sculptor, celebrated across the globe for his contemporary statues, bronze figures and artistic maquettes. Mills showcased a flair for sculpture from a young age, first exhibiting at the Royal Academy of Arts in 1951 and then hosting his first one-man show at the AIA Gallery, London in 1959. Throughout his distinguished career, Mills went on to receive several prizes and accolades and many notable commissions. Some of his most famous works include the monumental memorial to The Woman of World War II in Whitehall, London and the National Firefighters Memorial near St. Paul’s Cathedral, London. Following the sculptor’s passing in 2023, the contents of John W. Mill’s creative studio at his family home in Hinxworth Place, Hertfordshire were dispersed. This sculpture formed part of this curated collection, from which we selected several pieces, offering a rare chance to obtain original works made by the artist, including sculptural pieces for garden, interior and exhibition.
