Sir JACOB EPSTEIN [1880-1959]. Sir Muirhead Bone, 1916. bronze, edition of 6 [an early cast and most likely cast in 1916]. 26 cm high - excluding the wood base. Provenance: Leicester Galleries, c. 1917; M. Paez-Vilano collection, USA; Sothebys auction, New York, 3 June 1970, lot 90; private collection, USA; Roy Davids collection [£12000]; private collection, UK. Literature: 'The Sculpture of Epstein', E. Silber, 1986, Phaidon, catalogue raisonne, p. 40, no. 75 [Silber records this as cast no.4 - she only records 4 casts - so the final 2 may never have been cast]; 'Jacob Epstein - Adventures of the Soul', Dr Justine Hopkins, 2018, plate 3 [this cast illustrated]. Sir Muirhead Bone [1876-1953] was a celebrated UK artist who became the first official war artist in 1916 during WW1 and Epstein modelled this head of his friend shortly afterwards. Bone was an Imperial War Museum [IWM] trustee and helped establish it in 1917. He was also a trustee of the Tate and National Galleries. Neither the IWM nor National Portrait Gallery own a cast of Bone - quite surprising? Jacob Epstein is one of the greatest sculptors of all time - any artist who created 'Rock Drill' in 1913, could pretty much live on that acclaim for the rest of their lives, but he went on to create many great sculptures - his modelled bronze heads and busts are unsurpassed.. Two of his contemporaries, Frank Dobson and Eric Gill, are currently rated more highly even though they are inferior sculptors. Eric Gill [1882-1940] was a good craftsman, but a repulsive human being - a paedophile etc. - if he had been a musician, actor or writer, many people these days would want him erased from the history - but because he was a visual artist he is celebrated far beyond his artistic merits - why? [see Fiona MacCarthy's 'Eric Gill' biography for the full horrific details - all covered up during his lifetime, as he was 'religious' - where have we heard that before?].. [very good condition - the wood base has some marks and slight chips and supports to tilt the head upwards]. Buyers premium 20% + VAT - ARR 4%
