John Skeaping: 'A Group of Axis Deer'.
John Skeaping was one of a number of progressive sculptors who, during the 1920s, revolutionised sculpture in Britain through their interest in non-Western art, and their commitment to direct carving in wood or stone.
This resulted in the simplification of forms, and in many cases their work became increasingly abstract.
