Linda Brunker, Irish b. 1966, `Foliose`, bronze, figure with foliage, PROVENANCE: Bought directly from the artist. Linda Brunker was born in Dublin in 1966. She studied at the National College of Art & Design between 1983-1988. She has done several large commissions including `The People`s Counsil`, City Hall, Laguna Beach 2006, `Signal`, commissioned by RTE in Dublin 1996 and many others. Her works are in various collections worldwide and she has had many solo and group exhibitions. She emigrated to the USA in 2005. At an early point in her career she began to develop what she terms an `open filigree` technique of casting in bronze, a practice which has set apart her style and which challenges the traditional concept of bronze figurative sculpture. Her sculptures are typically based on the human form and have a strong spiritual and ecological quality. Natural elements such as leaves, feathers or starfish feature in abundance in her work and are intricately woven together to give shape to elegant figures which are later cast in bronze. The first version of foliose is in the Allied Irish Bank collection. Her work has been in such demand in North America, that in 2007 she opened her own gallery in Los Angeles where her sculpture and drawings form part of an ongoing exhibition.

CLARE SHERIDAN BUST OF A WOMAN bronze, signed in the bronze and dated 1949 42cm high Note; Clare Sheridan was a cousin of Sir Winston Churchill whom she embarrassed by her wild behaviour and belief in free love. She married in 1910 and had three children, one of whom died in 1914. Grief-stricken, she modelled an angel for her child's grave and discovered a talent for sculpture. After the death of her husband in the First World War, she began exhibiting her portrait sculptures, including one of Churchill, created while he painted her. An admirer of communism, she travelled in secret to the Soviet Union in 1920. There she sculpted Lenin and Trotsky, later publishing her diary of the trip. She then went to Mexico and America, where she settled, becoming friends with Charlie Chaplin. Next she turned to journalism, interviewing senior European figures for the American press. Her second trip to Russia, in 1923, proved disillusioning. She took her children to live first in Turkey and then on the edge of the Sahara in Algeria. After the Second World War she became a Roman Catholic. She continued to sculpt and to write her memoirs.

Aime-Jules Dalou (French 1838-1902): Bronze Bust of La Boulonnaise, circa 1875-80, wearing a traditional head cap and cloak, with gentle downward look, raised on an ebonised wood capstan plinth, 34.5cm high, 47.5cm high overall See illustration. Purchased from Agnew, Exhibition Sculpture and Works of Art 1981, pg.34. Literature: J Cooper Nineteenth Century Romantic Bronzes, 1975, p.90. In July 1871 Delou was forced into exile because of his Republican sympathies and his active support for the commune. He escaped to England where, with the help of his fellow-sculptor and friend Legros, he found great success. He was a regular exhibitor at The Royal Academy 1872-79, and the public especially liked his studies of mothers reading, sewing or nursing children. His studies of Boulogne peasants were also popular. This bust of a French peasant was probably cast in London by an Italian, Cantoni, at his foundry in the King's Road. Several other unsigned casts similar to this example are known to exist, and at least one is dated 1883.
