Abstract

Inspired by Eric Gill’s completion of his sculpture ‘Mankind’, Gibbings began to sculpt and with immediate success; the sculpture he is ‘working on’ in this photographic image, taken for publicity, was his first. Gibbings was a natural and he had the added bonus of being able to seek advice and guidance from his friend Gill.
