ANONYMOUS ALUMINIUM SCULPTURE

1950s EA/IE/0006

Ireland. Land of lush green hills, cozy pubs, and… mini-sculptures that look like door handles? It’s pretty hard to place this nondescript, aluminum figure into a scene. Was it intended to adorn a charming garden gate or perhaps serve as a quirky paperweight on a cluttered desk? Or just maybe: the perfect gift for that minimalist friend who already has everything.
