'Figure with Bird' was first exhibited in John Bridgeman's 1949 degree show at the Royal College of Art. Throughout his career, Bridgeman was continually modelling, repeatedly turning to the female form. Working in wax and clay for casting in lead, resin and bronze, he was extraordinarily prolific and left an impressive body of work, little of which has been exhibited before. His sculptures are striking for their immediacy, delicacy and simplicity.
