Melanie Le Brocquy

Melanie le Brocquy (23 December 1919 – 22 June 2018) was an Irish sculptor who specialized in female figures and family members. Forms are reduced to a simple statement.[1] Although she did not create very many works, her skills are widely respected. Among her most successful pieces are busts of her brother Louis (1916–2012), a painter, and of her mother.[2][3][4]
