Description

signed and dated 'Paul Day 1997' to the left-hand side, terracotta 34.5 x 40 x 16cm

Footnote: Chiefly working in terracotta, resin and bronze, British sculptor, Paul Day, has established a peculiarly singular aesthetic dialect in contemporary sculpture. With an unusual and, at times, unsettling approach to perspective, scale, and composition, Day’s highly stylised works defy any traditional means of categorisation. Noted for his keen observation of architectural and human forms, Day has received commissions throughout Europe, Canada, and the United States, with The Meeting Place at St Pancras, London, The Battle of Britain Monument at Victoria Embankment, London, and The Iraq & Afghanistan Memorial at the Victoria Embankment Gardens, London, being among his best-known works.

Condition report: A repaired diagonal break across the top left corner, otherwise good.
