Description
Board mounted with photographs of sculptures by Vivian Smith as follows:
Top, left to right: Head from Life, modelled at Royal College of Art (1908-9), front view; Head study; Head from Life, modelled at Royal College of Art (1908-9), three-quarter view.
Second row: Full-length male figure in action, front view; Relief (Vivian Smith's signature is visible on the top right edge of the relief); Full-length male figure in action, front right view.
Third row, left to right: Full-length male figure in action, left side view; Design, possibly for a memorial, with three cloaked female figures (Vivian Smith's signature is visible along the front edge of the model); Full-length male figure in action, back view (Vivian Smith's signature is visible along the back edge of the base).
The board is undated, but was possibly compiled in the 1910s or 1920s. The photographs are likely to have been taken earlier, during Vivian Smith's time as a student in England.
