Purchased in Bucks County, Pa. Created in-the-style of the iconic, sculptural artist - Henry Moore - large (almost 3ft. long) and heavy modernist/contemporary sculpture was created in the mid to late 20th century.

The style emphasizes form and the human figure, reminiscent of some modernist sculpture traditions. The artist seems to be exploring themes of balance, tension, and the human body's capabilities.

Heavy plaster as a medium has been used for sculpture for millennia, prized for its durability and ability to capture fine detail. The paint and patinated finish gives the sculpture a sense of age and depth, enhancing its visual appeal. It clearly draws inspiration from figurative sculpture. See less
