Oil-painted
resin mask of Olympia, a mechanical doll, on a purple heart wood base.
The silver-leafed interior is filled with an assemblage of gears and springs
to suggest the inner working of an automaton, including a wind-up music
box mechanism that plays music from the opera.
This sculpture is in the collection of Sir Thomas Allen. A limited edition bronze of the mask is available. |
