Neal French Terracotta Sculptural Standing Lady Figurine

About the Item

A very stylish terracotta sculptural figure of a lady by renowned sculptor Neal French dating from the latter 20th Century. The figure stands mounted on a wooden base and is simply modeled and in slight abstract wearing a long flowing dress with a matt terracotta colored finish. Neal French graduated from the Royal College of Art in London and worked for fifteen years as a designer, modeller and sculptor for Spode and Worcester Royal Porcelain Co. He then spent 20 years teaching at Hornsey College of Art and also did some work at Rye Pottery as a freelance modeller. The sculpture is not signed but is accompanied by a printed exhibition card dated 1996 from where we believe the sculpture was acquired. The sculpture is in excellent condition and held to the base by a single screw which rotates freely.

  • La Tolita-Tumaco Standing Female Figure
    Located in Chicago, IL
    This standing effigy was crafted in 500 A.D. - 1000 A.D. Mesoamerica using the gray clay paste that characterizes La Tolita-Tumaco ceramics of early Colombia-Ecuador. The art of La Tolita-Tumaco civilization is considered one of the most developed of the pre-Columbian period as metalwork and ceramics were the most popular form of cultural expression. The ceramic creations of this culture were often based on the human figure to create portraits of people and realistic daily scenes of life cycles and the human condition. This figure appears to be wearing a loincloth and is adorned with a beaded necklace and an elaborate coiffure or headdress. There are holes lining each ear indicating the potential use of ear spools...
