(41.5cm) high Exhibited: London, Royal Academy, 1962, No.1191 Eric Winters represented the fifth generation of sculptors in the Winters family, learning sculpture under the experienced eye of his father Leo Hill Winters, a carver and letter designer. He went on to study at St. Martins School of Art and in April 1939 at the age of 18 was awarded the only open scholarship to attend the Royal Academy Sculpture School where he was the youngest student Eric`s studies were interrupted during the war years, only being resumed from 1947-52 when the Academy re-opened. His achievements in his student days were most impressive and include four Landseer prizes for figurative sculpture (three in 1947 and one in 1950), representation of Great Britain and bronze medal in the XVIth Olympiad Sport in Art exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum (1948) and travelling scholarship to France: The Edward Stott Award for a group of figures (1949) Winters exhibited annually at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition throughout the 1950s. Driven by his early success in portraiture and genuine passion for this branch of sculpture, Eric was already starting to pave the way for the formation of a new society even before completing his studies at the Royal Academy Schools. He had a close rapport with several of his professors including Sir Charles Wheeler, Maurice Lambert and Alfred Hardiman whose influence and support were significant at the time The newly formed Society of Portrait Sculptors presented its first annual exhibition from November 1952 to December 1953. Winters was a keen exhibitor at the Society`s exhibitions in London and elsewhere, contributing to many very fine portraits over the years, probably his most well known head is that of the footballer Danny Blanchflower modelled from life and exhibited at the Society`s 1960 annual exhibition
