About this work

This photograph showcases a sculpture of three nude women, each with distinct poses and facial expressions. The woman on the left stands with her right arm raised, while the woman in the middle is adorned with flowers and appears to be dancing. The woman on the right stands with her hands on her hips. The sculpture is crafted from a light-colored material, possibly marble or stone, and is set against a dark background. The overall effect is one of elegance and sophistication.

The story of this work

Overview

A black-and-white photograph is mounted on a green card, part of a collection bequeathed in 1938 by William Kineton Parkes, a novelist, art historian, and librarian known for his work on sculpture. Parkes had distributed questionnaires to sculptors in the 1920s, and this photograph was one of many responses he received and retained in his archive.
