Head, Dame Edith Sitwell (1887-1964),
Patinated bronze on marble base,
40.5cm high overall
NOTE: Originally commissioned by Edith's brother Osbert Sitwell circa 1926/27. A version of this piece is held in the permanent collection of the National Portrait Gallery (NPG 5801). Vanessa Nicholson notes in THE SCULPTURE OF MAURICE LAMBERT that the Sitwell family allowed posthumous casts of the piece to be made in 1984, and it is possible this piece is one of those.
