NICK BIBBY | Robin III
Bronze
Edition of 1 of 15
33 x 29 x 13 cms / 13 x 11½ x 5 inches
This bronze marks a new edition within Nick Bibby’s much-admired series celebrating Britain’s most familiar garden bird. Compact yet full of character, the sculpture captures the robin’s alert posture and confidence. Subtle surface modelling brings a lifelike presence without excess, inviting close viewing and a sense of intimacy. Thoughtfully scaled, Robin III sits easily within both contemporary and traditional settings, offering a timeless beauty rendered with sensitivity and restraint.
Nick Bibby is widely regarded as one of the preeminent sculptors of his generation.
From a young age, Bibby's passion has been nature and the natural world. Fascinated by both form and detail, Bibby models with a fluidity and energy that few can equal, simultaneously and effortlessly combining that energy with jewel-like attention to detail, resulting in sculptures that look as though they live and breathe.
The resulting sculptures are both beautiful works of art and loving portraits, be they birds, mammals, or humans.
Bibby's sculptures range from monumental to miniature, but all show exquisite attention to detail.
Throughout his artistic career, Bibby has received many notable commissions including a scientifically accurate life-size sculpture of a Dodo, on permanent exhibition at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, and in 2013 he was commissioned by Brown University to sculpt a monumental, life-size Kodiak Brown Bear, which stands in pride of place on their campus in Rhode Island.
