Man on Edge I

A sculptural study in tension and stillness, *Man on Edge I* by John Richard renders the human figure in metal and brass with an Antique Bronze finish that speaks to antiquity and quiet authority. Selenite and stone ground the composition, introducing a geological counterpoint to the worked metal — light held within mineral, weight held within form. At six inches tall and eight inches wide, the piece is intimate in scale yet commanding in presence, the kind of object that anchors a console or library shelf with the gravity of something far larger. It is, above all, a meditation on edge — the place where material, silhouette, and meaning converge.
