This sculpture shows a simple, blocky figure standing on a rough stone base. The body is smooth and rounded, with short arms crossed over the chest. The head tilts slightly forward, and the face is plain with no clear details. The figure’s shape looks more like stacked shapes than a realistic person. This style was used to make people feel the basic forms under the skin. Next, look up Moore, Henry Spencer to see how he shaped other figures.
