Stone Garden Sculpture on Marble Base I

A quiet meditation on mineral beauty, this sculpture by John Richard arranges amethyst, selenite, and stone into an organic composition anchored by a grounded marble base. The brass framework holds each element in considered tension, allowing the natural variations of the stone to read as both subject and surface. At just under eighteen inches, it occupies space with the authority of something far larger — a piece that rewards the intimate scale of a library shelf or side table equally.
