Examples of this piece can be found in the permanent collections of the Tampa Museum of Art, Gift of Patricia Thorn Rouleau, given in memory of Allan Stewart Thorn, 1999.008 and the Yale University Art Gallery, 2018.7.1. Oakridge Auction Gallery is indebted to the Tampa Museum of Art who graciously confirmed the details of this bronze sculpture. Condition: Figure is free of chips, cracks, scratches and repairs. The base with an age related crack and wax fill repair to the stone. Provenance: Oakridge Auction Gallery has been entrusted to bring an archive of paintings by Francis Focer Brown (American, 1891–1971) and Beulah H. Brown (American, 1892–1987), a.k.a. Beulah Elizabeth Hazelrigg Brown, to market. This archive is believed to have been part of the personal collection of one of the artists and was recently discovered languishing in storage. This is the first time in this generation these pieces have been seen and offered publicly. This bronze sculpture was discovered with the same collection.
