About the Item

A patinated resin figural sculpture titled 'American Footballer' by the acclaimed British sculptor, John W. Mills. This three-dimensional dynamic piece creates a sense of movement, demonstrating the talent of its artist. The footballer's posture is captured in such a way that highlights its features, made with resin patinated to resemble bronze. Showcased on an integral wooden plinth base, this sculpture is perfect for decorative display in a modern interior, perhaps as a new feature piece for a room of sporting memorabilia. John W. Mills (1933-2023) John Mills was a highly celebrated English sculptor, celebrated across the globe for his contemporary statues, bronze figures and artistic maquettes. Mills showcased a flair for sculpture from a young age, first exhibiting at the Royal Academy of Arts in 1951 and then hosting his first one-man show at the AIA Gallery, London in 1959. Throughout his distinguished career, Mills went on to received several prizes and accolades and many notable commissions. Some of his most famous works include the monumental memorial to The Woman of World War II in Whitehall, London and the National Firefighters Memorial near St. Paul’s Cathedral, London. Following the sculptor’s passing in 2023, the contents of John W. Mill’s creative studio at his family home in Hinxworth Place, Hertfordshire were dispersed. This sculpture formed part of this curated collection, from which we selected several pieces, offering a rare chance to obtain original works made by the artist, including sculptural pieces for garden, interior and exhibition.
