Lucas Sithole SOUTH AFRICAN 1931-1994 Winter II ( LS7503) 1975 signed on the base carved Rhodesian teak on liquid steel base height: 102cm PROVENANCE: Gallery 21, Johannesburg. Die Kunskamer, Cape Town. Private collection, Johannesburg. EXHIBITED: Gallery 21, Johannesburg, 1975, cat. no. ZAR1300. Sithole Retrospective Exhibition, Rand Afrikaans University, Johannesburg, 1979. Sithole Retrospective Exhibition, Pretoria Art Museum, Pretoria, 1979. Gallery 21, Johannesburg, 1987. Sitholeâ€™s representations of human forms as simplified yet graceful elongated figures, were carved from a single piece of wood and mounted on a modest base (usually wood, stone or liquid steel). These figures reflect Sitholeâ€™s remarkable ability to depict human emotion and social realism through his carving, allowing the wood to reveal an emotional form. Only a handful of these elongated figures were carved with separate legs. In most, the legs are fused or at most a small parting can be seen close to the base. Perhaps often the wood did not allow for it, but presumably too Sithole could carve a more stable and taller figure by retaining the legs as a unified piece. Winter II, with its distinctly separate long legs, as well as the double head, makes this figure unusual in his oeuvre. 1. http://sithole.com/SITHOLE-LS7503.htm
