Description
This compact bronze maquette offers an intimate yet powerful interpretation of the ram’s head. The spiralling horns dominate the composition, framing the face and drawing attention to the animal’s resolute gaze. Waites’ modelling is confident and direct, with textured surfaces suggesting fleece and bone without overstatement. The reduced scale encourages close viewing, revealing subtle variations in patina and form that might otherwise go unnoticed. As a maquette, the work provides insight into the artist’s sculptural thinking, distilling strength and character into a concise, resolved object.
