Cosmos Queen combines realism and abstraction in one piece of Brazilian agate to show the force and femininity of this Queen: hard, unnatural edges set against a softly modelled face and figure, and a back held straight enough never to bend under opposition. The hair rises into a crown that thins to the finest edges, delicate and unyielding, and the whole is set on an immovable jasper base, which stands for her authority.
Materials: Brazilian agate, jasper stand
Dimensions: height 18 cm
In private collection.
