    LAURENCE BRODERICK (BRITISH 1935-2024) INDIAN ELEPHANT CALF MAQUETTE signed, titled and inscribed A/C, artist's cast from an edition of 25, with Lunts Castings Foundry stamp, hallmarked for Birmingham, silver 9.5cm high, 11.5cm wide (3 3/4in high, 4 1/2in wide) Laurence Broderick: The Accidental Naturalist I am never ever going to make an animal, I didn’t want to go into that area. I was a sculptor of shapes, modern, abstract shapes, I did not want to go down the road of being a wildlife sculptor. Laurence Broderick Despite the above declaration, the agility of the otter and its ability to create myriad shapes captured Laurence Broderick’s imagination and appealed to his artistic nature. He allowed himself to experiment and to depict just this one animal. Today Broderick’s affinity with the otter is so great that he is known as the ‘otter man of Skye’ and he is a joint president of the International Otter Survival Fund (IOSF). His work and attitude towards conservation have also broadened to include many other species. Broderick’s respect for the natural world is also apparent through his creative process. Often carving directly into stone or wood he makes no preparatory drawings or models of his intended creations. Instead, he works in unison with the material to accentuate its natural truth, keeping forms simple and surfaces uncluttered by detail. In many cases his sculptures are carefully polished to enhance their colour and markings, especially when they are cast in bronze or silver. Broderick works with a wide selection of stone including Ledmore, Portsoy and Purbeck marbles, alabaster, Polyphant soapstone, as well as Hopton Wood and Ancaster limestone. The combination of these raw materials together with a sympathy with the casting process and sensitive sculpture’s eye has led to the creation of objects in harmony with the natural world.

    § Laurence Broderick, (1935 -2024), Nude II,

    Est: £800 - £1,200

    § Laurence Broderick, (1935 -2024), Nude II, bronze, signed and numbered 3/7 41cm high Laurence Broderick is, of course, best-known for his 2003 work The Guardian. Known also as The Bull, the seven-tonne bronze, installed in Birmingham’s Bullring shopping centre, has become an iconic and beloved emblem of the city and has brought Broderick’s oeuvre into the broader public consciousness. Born in Bristol, Broderick studied art at the Regent Street Polytechnic and Hammersmith School of Art, training under esteemed sculptors including Geoffrey Deeley and Sidney Harpley. Following his training, Broderick worked as a freelance illustrator and art teacher for two decades before committing to sculpture. It was a chance encounter with a wild otter during a family holiday in 1978 that inspired this important career shift. Captivated by the creature’s grace, Broderick began sculpting wildlife, particularly otters, earning a devoted following. His wildlife sculptures, carved directly from British stone or cast in bronze, combined smooth curves and flowing lines with areas of rough texture, capturing both vitality and elegance. Although his fame rests largely on The Bull, Broderick’s broader body of work includes powerful bronze portraits and wildlife studies. A passionate conservationist, he served as joint president of the International Otter Survival Fund, dedicating his art to raising awareness of endangered species. His work, shown in prestigious exhibitions worldwide, remains a testament to his profound connection with nature and his ability to distil its essence into timeless forms.

    § Laurence Broderick (1935-2024), Walberswick Barn Owl,

    Est: £1,500 - £2,500

    § Laurence Broderick (1935-2024), Walberswick Barn Owl, green patinated bronze, signed and numbered 6/25 22cm wide Laurence Broderick is, of course, best-known for his 2003 work The Guardian. Known also as The Bull, the seven-tonne bronze, installed in Birmingham’s Bullring shopping centre, has become an iconic and beloved emblem of the city and has brought Broderick’s oeuvre into the broader public consciousness. Born in Bristol, Broderick studied art at the Regent Street Polytechnic and Hammersmith School of Art, training under esteemed sculptors including Geoffrey Deeley and Sidney Harpley. Following his training, Broderick worked as a freelance illustrator and art teacher for two decades before committing to sculpture. It was a chance encounter with a wild otter during a family holiday in 1978 that inspired this important career shift. Captivated by the creature’s grace, Broderick began sculpting wildlife, particularly otters, earning a devoted following. His wildlife sculptures, carved directly from British stone or cast in bronze, combined smooth curves and flowing lines with areas of rough texture, capturing both vitality and elegance. Although his fame rests largely on The Bull, Broderick’s broader body of work includes powerful bronze portraits and wildlife studies. A passionate conservationist, he served as joint president of the International Otter Survival Fund, dedicating his art to raising awareness of endangered species. His work, shown in prestigious exhibitions worldwide, remains a testament to his profound connection with nature and his ability to distil its essence into timeless forms.
