wo Watchers on a Staircase, c.1960s

 

Cement fondu and metal

 

Given by Sarah Hosking, 2019

 

Alma Ramsey-Hosking studied at the Royal College of Art in London during the 1920s and later moved to Warwickshire where she and her husband, the artist Richard ‘Dick’ Hosking, contributed to the creative boom that blossomed in the county during the post-war years. 

In this sculpture Ramsey-Hosking conveys a sense of movement through the dynamic poses of the figures and the partial spiral staircase. The attenuated, semi-abstracted figures of this work are typical of the style of many artists working in the period, as is Ramsey-Hosking’s choice of material, cement fondu.
