The croquet player

Stumbled across a Philip Jackson exhibition being put together this afternoon and had a sneak preview. Maybe a couple of dozen maquettes, really beautiful and quite stunning. Hadn't seen this one before, someone was just about to purchase it. They are all limited editions so you can still have one if you have a spare few thousands. I didn't dare ask how much. My favourite is still Gale Force Nun II which would go very well in a niche in our house. I'd probably have to sell my car to buy it....

In the background is Salieri's Fan, beautiful lines.

As this is just around the corner from us, I'll be popping regularly. Just love his work.
