ROBERT LINDSEY CLARK A.R.B.S. (1892-1926) "THE BROKEN LIMBER", signed and dated 1924,cast and patinated bronze, 22" x 26.5", on a carved oak table stand, 54" high overall and fitted with turntable to enable rotation of the piece Provenance: Capt. W.N. McClean and thence by descent. Exhibited: Royal Academy, 1924, no.1551. Acquired at the end of the exhibition by Capt. McClean for £300. An Exhibition of Cheltenham Artists at Cheltenham Art Gallery, December 8th 1925 - January 16th 1925, by kind permission of Capt. W.N. McClean. Literature: `The Best, a history of H.H. Martyn & Co`, John Whitaker, Promenade Publications, 1998 `The Broken Limber` or `The Limber - A Broken Pole` was originally designed as Cheltenham`s Memorial to those lost in The Great War, and was envisaged to be a life size cast set upon a plinth of Portland Stone. The piece depicts two horses lunging to pull an eighteen pounder gun limber of the Royal Horse Artillery from the mud, being expertly controlled by a soldier who is riding one of the horses, despite the broken limber pole which has given under the strain. The bronze offered here is the prime version as exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1924. It appears from correspondence between the Artist and Capt. McClean that two replicas of the bronze had been commissioned at the time of the sale, and that these would be marked `Replica` and have an additional rifle butt amongst the debris at the bottom of the sculpture to distinguish them from the original cast. A replica of the bronze is in the collection of The Museum of Cheltenham. The correspondence between Robert Lindsey Clark and Capt. W.N. McClean is included in this lot.
