Description: | The figure of a young male nude is mounted on a two-stepped pedestal of brick with two square concrete slab tops. He kneels with his left knee on the higher section of the pedestal and extends his right leg to touch the lower section with his toes. His whole body leans to the right, his right arm crooked, with his hand behind his upward-looking head, his left arm slightly crooked and extending above his head. Byron remarked of the figure, quite reasonably, that it was a competent bronze of a nude man though his position is unusual'. There is no inscription plaque and the sculpture does not appear to be signed. | Subjects: | Sculpture | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Sculptor: Wain-Hobson, Douglas | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8248... | Go to resource |
