Seated Girl by Brian Alabaster, Lead , Edition Signed and Numbered I of 20, 104cm high by 58cm wide by 54cm deep. Children. Classical. Figurative. Female. Nude sculpture

 This piece which is almost life size work depicts a young girl, approximately 9 to 11 years old, in a relaxed seated pose. One leg is tucked in, while the other hangs naturally to the floor. She glances over her shoulder, adding a sense of awareness and gentle curiosity to the composition.

Alabaster captures the subtleties of the child’s form with precision. The smooth lead surface highlights the delicate contours of her body, while careful modeling conveys innocence, poise, and quiet elegance. The naturalistic pose allows the sculpture to be displayed on a tree stump, bench, or plinth, adapting seamlessly to various interior and gallery settings.

Moreover, the work exemplifies classical figurative sculpture with contemporary sensitivity. Its detailed anatomy, subtle gestures, and expressive posture create an intimate and engaging experience for viewers. Light interacts with the lead surface, emphasizing the natural curves and soft planes of the figure, while shadows enhance the three-dimensionality and presence.

In addition, Seated Girl appeals to collectors of figurative lead sculpture, lovers of classical art, and admirers of finely crafted contemporary sculpture. The signed and numbered edition ensures authenticity, while Alabaster’s craftsmanship guarantees both visual and emotional impact.

Overall, this sculpture blends classical technique with youthful vitality. Its expressive posture, lifelike proportions, and quiet elegance make it a striking addition to galleries, exhibitions, or private collections.
