The Dancer

Availability: 16 weeks

A square composition of quiet drama, The Dancer by John Richard suspends movement within a framework of wood and framed acrylic, its antique silver finish lending the piece the patinated authority of something long and thoughtfully collected. At just over forty-five inches in both height and width, it occupies a wall with genuine architectural presence — neither modest nor overbearing, but precisely scaled for a room that understands proportion. The silvered surface shifts with light in the manner of aged mercury glass, so that the work reads differently at noon than it does by candlelight.
