Description
The Wild Boar sculpture, created in 1969 by Elisabeth Frink, is located in the Water Gardens of Harlow civic centre. This bronze sculpture stands approximately 76cm tall and is mounted on a bronze-faced plinth positioned just above water level. The semi-figurative design features a poised, alert stance, with a heavy torso contrasted by dainty, slender limbs. The body is exaggeratedly narrow, and the hindquarters appear underdeveloped, while the head is characterized by a large, sweeping snout, with the eyes indicated only by slight marks. The surface of the sculpture has a lightly textured finish, achieved by manipulating wet plaster with tools.
