Walter Driesbach, Untitled Large Sculpture of a Woman (20th century)
Description A large carved figure of a woman. It is incredible how much Driesbach could achieve with such a beautifully simplistic line of carving. We love the subtle suggestion of a tummy. Walter Driesbach was an exceptionally talented sculptor whose pieces remain affordable solely because he did not achieve the widespread recognition that he most definitely deserved. Notice that there is not a separate plinth for the sculpture. It is carved out of one piece of stone. If you look closely at the bottom you can see how rough it is. That is what Driesbach, or any stone sculptor, started with. Amazing.
