ROBERT CLATWORTHY R.A. [1928-2015]. Dog 1, 1966. bronze, edition of 8, 4/8; signed RC. 26 cm long. Provenance: The artist; Private collection, UK. Literature: 'Robert Clatworthy', 2012, Sansom, p. 115, pl. RC82. Clatworthy is, in our opinion, the greatest modern sculptor of animals [obviously, Marino Marini's Horse & Riders are also superb] - he worked very quickly in wet plaster putting an enormous amount of life into the sculptures. According to the great art critic David Sylvester, he was the greatest sculptor he had seen since Henry Moore. Hanover Gallery, perhaps the greatest gallery in Europe in the 1950s, took on Clatworthy straight out of art college in 1953, in preference to Frink [they studied together at Chelsea School of Art] ! Please note: there is a Clatworthy bronze Bull later on in the auction.[very good condition - a bit of dust]. Buyers premium of 20% + VAT is payable.
