Est: £4,000 - £6,000
§ RICHARD GARBE (1876-1957) ‘GIRL WITH PARROT’, 1933 bronze, signed and dated in the bronze RICHARD GARBE ARA/ 1933 (40cm high) Note: A prolific sculptor of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, Richard Garbe initially learned his craft under the apprenticeship of his father, a carver of luxury ivory and tortoiseshell goods. Garbe's emotive and often dramatic compositions take inspiration from the New Sculpture movement which aimed to convey a renewed sense of dynamism and physical realism, somewhat removed from the more stylised representations of neo-classical sculpture. Recognised for his versatility in working with ivory, bronze, clay and plaster, Garbe gained much praise for his work and was elected to the Royal Academy in 1929 after several nominations from contemporaries such as Frampton, Thornycroft and John Goscombe.
