Green and Bronze coloured ceramic jug recast of I Have My Pride, by Elza Mayhew

Date: 1958
Size: H: 10” x W: 6” x D: 8”
Casts: 3
Form: Portrait Head
Material: Green Compound Stone

About half a dozen life-size portrait heads were made in the late 1950s, modelled in clay, and sand-cast in compound stone. There are two heads of Anne, this one called “‘I Have My Pride’”. The top was left unfinished, because piece was designed to be re-cast in ceramic. Two ceramic jugs resulted: one shiny blue, the other matte green/gold.

There was also a bust of Anne, cast in pink compound stone, that disappeared from a garden siting sometime in the early 1970s.
