Description
Fine quality design for a sculpture by Hector McDonald Sutton in pen and silver paint. This is one of several designs he undertook for sculptures to celebrate the Festival of Britain in 1951. Some were worked up into metal and wire sculptures, one of which I still retain. Painter, draughtsman, mural artist, printmaker and teacher, and latterly sculptor. Born in Staffordshire, studied at Southport and Liverpool schools of art and latterly at the Royal College of Art, where his teachers included Tom Monnington and Randolph Schwabe. Between 1928-1937, he assisted Alfred Kingsley Lawrence, another of his tutors at the Royal College, to complete the Bank of England Murals. Working as a painter, mural artist, print maker and later sculptor, Sutton exhibited at the Royal Academy and in the provenances. Framed in a black painted solid wood frame.
