Description

Christine Gregory, who taught modelling at the Hammersmith School of Arts and Crafts from 1918 to 1937, exhibited what was probably the plaster original of this piece in the Royal Academy in 1921. This is one of an unknown number of bronze casts subsequently made. The model, a Miss Kingsley-White, was then in her teens. She went on to be a ballet dancer, and was for six years premiere danseuse to Anna Pavlova.
