About the Item
Edition of 25
'Demeter' by Carl Payne. A bronze sculpture of a figurative woman representing Demeter, goddess of the harvest and fertility, captures both grace and symbolic power. The sculptor portrays Demeter in a poised stance, her form embodying strength and nurturing presence. Flowing lines of drapery sweep around her body, suggesting abundance and movement, while her serene facial expression conveys wisdom, compassion, and timeless authority. Subtle detailing in the posture and hands reinforces her role as a bringer of life and sustenance.
The green patina enriches the sculpture with a natural, organic quality, evoking the cycles of growth, earth, and renewal that Demeter governs. This verdant surface resonates with themes of fertility and nature’s abundance, while providing depth and visual variation across the folds of fabric and contours of the figure. Polished gold-bronze details provide striking contrast, highlighting specific features such as her headdress, jewelry, or symbolic attributes. These luminous accents catch the light, elevating the work with a sense of divinity and reverence.
The combination of tactile surfaces and contrasting patinas creates a sculpture that is both powerful and inviting. More than a figure, this bronze embodies Demeter’s enduring symbolism as a goddess of life’s cycles, fertility, and the eternal bond between humanity and the earth.
