Description
This bronze head-portrait sculpture depicts Pax, the Roman goddess of peace.
The exaggerated features of Frank Dobson' stylised female head may have been inspired by African sculptures and the works of Picasso. Its mottled surface was produced by layering a dull, brown patina over the shiny bronze.
