Stone Figure Sculpture, Small

A hand-made figure rendered in stone and marble, this small sculpture from John Richard carries the quiet authority of something far older than its surroundings — an object that asks to be contemplated rather than merely seen. At twelve inches tall, its slender proportion lends it an almost architectural verticality, equally at home anchoring a curated vantage on a console or holding its own within a considered tableau of objects. The natural materiality of stone and marble ensures that no two pieces are precisely alike, each bearing the subtle variation that distinguishes the hand-wrought from the manufactured.
